Abstract
A unique sample-preparation technique to prepare the cross-sectional samples of SiNWs for TEM examinations was developed. Using this technique, the cross-sections of SiNW were successfully prepared and studied, which revealed that the Si core was bounded by well-defined facets of low-index crystallographic planes. Moreover, statistical data to elucidate the growth directions of the SiNWs synthesized by the oxide-assisted growth (OAG) approach was obtained as well. © 2003 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
