Watch a recorded seminar lecture exploring the kinetics and mechanisms behind guided nanowire growth, presented by Prof. Ernesto Joselevich from the Weizmann Institute of Science. Delve into the challenges and advances in large-scale assembly of nanowires with controlled orientation on surfaces. Learn about the growth of perfectly aligned, millimeter-long horizontal nanowires using various materials including GaN, ZnO, ZnSe, and CsPbBr3 on different substrate planes. Discover how nanowire growth directions and crystallographic orientations are controlled through epitaxial relationships and graphoepitaxial effects. Explore practical applications including the parallel self-integration of nanowires into circuits and development of optoelectronic nanosystems. Examine detailed crystallographic orientation mapping, polarity studies using nonlinear optical response, and both in situ and ex situ kinetic investigations that reveal the fundamental mechanisms of guided nanowire growth through surface diffusion of adatoms.
