  • METHOD FOR FABRICATING SILICON NANOWIRE ARRAYS
    Publication number: 20130012022
    Abstract: A method for larger-area fabrication of uniform silicon nanowire arrays is disclosed. The method includes forming a metal layer with a predetermined thickness on a substrate whose surface has a silicon material by a coating process, the metal layer selected from the group consisting of Ag, Au and Pt; and performing a metal-induced chemical etching for the silicon material by using an etching solution. Accordingly, a drawback that Ag nanoparticles are utilized to perform the metal-induced chemical etching in prior art is solved.
