✦ Synopsis

A Safe Low Temperature Route to InAs Nanofibers.

-InAs nanofibers are successfully synthesized via a novel reaction of InCl 3 , As, and KBH 4 in ethylenediamine (160 • C, 24 h). The reaction proceeds via a metallic intermediate. A solution-liquid-solid mechanism is proposed for the fiber growth.
