Selective etching of InP in InAs/InP nanowires resulting in 11 nm nanogaps

Author

Summary, in English

We demonstrate a wet chemical method to selectively etch InP segments within InAs/InP heterostructure nanowires based on a photo-assisted HAc/HBr solution etching process. We successfully etched InP segments ranging from 60 nm down to about 10 nm in size.
