Catalyst-free self-assembled InP nanoneedles are grown on (0 0 1) InP-substrates using gas-source molecular beam epitaxy. The nanoneedles are investigated using SEM and TEM imaging, as well as micro-Raman measurements. Two nanoneedle orientations were observed: vertical (0 0 1)-oriented with the zin

Abstract
Ge and MnP nanowhiskers were synthesized by molecular‐beam epitaxy technique on InP(001) surface concurrently. The growth of Ge nanowhiskers is found to be assisted by Mn‐based nanocluster‐mediated vapour‐liquid‐solid mechanism of growth, whereas the growth of MnP nanowhiskers seems to be caused by catalyst‐free mechanism. Magnetic property measurements revealed that samples with prevailing Ge nanowhiskers exhibit ferromagnetic behaviour up to room temperature. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
