Download or read book Silicon Carbide One-dimensional Nanostructures written by Laurence Latu-Romain and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-03-16 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dedicated to SiC-based 1D nanostructures, this book explains the properties and different growth methods of these nanostructures. It details carburization of silicon nanowires, a growth process for obtaining original Si-SiC core-shell nanowires and SiC nanotubes of high crystalline quality, thanks to the control of the siliconout-diffusion. The potential applications of these particular nano-objects is also discussed, with regards to their eventual integration in biology, energy and electronics.
