    Abstract

    Single-crystalline silicon cylinders (SCSC) have been grown on silicon (1 0 0) surface by using a novel surface melting and recrystallizing method. The SCSC was observed standing sturdily in a molten silicon spot and could possibly grow to several millimeters in height and several hundred micrometers in diameter. Analysis showed that the crystal orientation of the SCSC was the same as that of the silicon (1 0 0) substrate.
