Abstract

Stacking-faults-free zinc blende GaAs nanowires have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy using the vapor-liquid-solid gold assisted growth method. Two different approaches were used to obtain continuous low supersaturation in the vicinity of the growing wires. A double distribution of gold droplets on the (111)B surface in the first case, and a highly terraced (311)B growth surface in the second case both avoided the commonly observed transition to wurtzite structure.
