Abstract:Chromium disilicide (CrSi 2 ) nanostructures were grown by the exposure of Si (111) substrates to CrCl 2 vapor in an argon gas flow at atmospheric pressure without using any metal catalyst. Dependence of the growth condition on the structural property was investigated. Hexagonal-shaped CrSi 2 microrods were grown at 750 °C with 0.05 g of CrCl 2 . As the quantity of CrCl 2 increased to 0.1 g, the bundle of CrSi 2 nanowires with microrods and web-liked CrSi 2 nanostructure with turning angles were grown at 750 °… Show more
