Smaller diameter nanowires are needed in order to scale down electronic devices and improve their performance. However, to date the properties of thin InAs nanowires and their sensitivity to various factors were not known. The book presents the first study of ultrathin InAs nanowires with diameters below 10 nm are studied, for the first time, establishing the channel in field-effect transistors (FETs) and the correlation between nanowire diameter and device performance. Moreover, it develops a novel method for directly correlating the atomic-level structure with the properties of individual nanowires and their device performance. Using this method, the electronic properties of InAs nanowires and the performance of the FETs they are used in are found to change with the crystal phases (wurtzite, zinc-blend or a mix phase), the axis direction and the growth method. These findings deepen our understanding of InAs nanowires and provide a potential way to tailor device performance by controlling the relevant parameters of the nanowires and devices. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aEngineering 606 $aSurfaces (Physics) 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aNanoscale Science and Technology$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/P25140 606 $aNanotechnology and Microengineering$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/T18000 606 $aSemiconductors$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/P25150 606 $aCharacterization and Evaluation of Materials$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/Z17000 606 $aElectronic Circuits and Devices$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/P31010 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/Z12000 615 0$aEngineering. 615 0$aSurfaces (Physics). 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 14$aNanoscale Science and Technology. 615 24$aNanotechnology and Microengineering. 615 24$aSemiconductors. 615 24$aCharacterization and Evaluation of Materials. 615 24$aElectronic Circuits and Devices. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 676 $a620.5 700 $aFu$b Mengqi$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0835653 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300532403321 996 $aElectrical Properties of Indium Arsenide Nanowires and Their Field-Effect Transistors$91867827 997 $aUNINA
