Abstract

See full text

A method for fabricating silicon nanowires. The method includes the steps of: depositing a silicon nitride layer on a silicon on insulator (SOI) starting wafer; patterning the silicon nitride to define at least one silicon microbar; etching the SOI starting wafer to expose the at least one silicon microbar, wherein the at least one microbar is surrounded by a raised perimeter; growing a silicon oxide layer on the raised perimeter of the at least one microbar; and etching a portion of the at least one silicon microbar to produce at least one silicon nanowire adjacent the silicon oxide layer.
