โฆ Synopsis
SiC nanowires with fins have been prepared by chemical vapor deposition in a vertical vacuum furnace by using a powder mixture of milled Si and SiO 2 and gaseous CH 4 as the raw materials. The products were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). These investigations confirm that the nanowires with fins are cubic b-SiC. The diameter of the fins is about 100-120 nm and the diameter of the inner core stems is about 60-70 nm. The formation process of the b-SiC nanowires with fins is analyzed and discussed briefly.
