Chapter 6 Room Temperature Light Emission from Silicon Nanowires Fabricated by a Metal-Assisted Wet Etching Process

A wet etching method for preparing silicon nanowires on silicon substrates at near room temperature is presented. The effect of experiment parameter on the silver nanoparticle forming including concentration of AgNO3, immersing time and solution temperature, and the effect of etching time on the length of silicon nanowires are investigated. It is concluded that solution temperature has more impact to diameter of silicon nanowires than concentration of AgNO3 and immersing time and longer etching time may result in longer silicon nanowires.

Dependent Viscosity

We adopted the verified transition state theory, which originates from the quantum chemistry approach to explain the anomalous plastic flow or plastic deformation for Si nanowires irradiated with 100 keV (at room temperature regime) Ar+ ions as well as the observed amorphization along the Si nanowire (Johannes, et al. 2015, “Anomalous Plastic Deformation and Sputtering of Ion Irradiated Silicon Nanowires,” Nano Lett., 15, pp. 3800–3807). We shall illustrate some formulations which can help us calculate the temperature-dependent viscosity of flowing Si in nanodomains.
