Growth and Characterization of Core-Branch Nanowire Structures
This thesis investigates growth of III – V semiconductor nanowire (NW) arrays, in a core- branch architecture, with the aim to develop diffusion driven light emitting diodes (LED) on NWs. Diffusion driven LEDs are based on the concept of decoupling the active region from the p-n junction. The carriers are injected by diffusion in the active region, because of the bandgap difference between the pn
