Keywords: , ,

The lateral and depth distributions of the surface oxidation and the surface Phosphorous doping concentrations have been measured from an individual SixGe(1-x) 60 nm diameter nanowire with Auger Electron Spectroscopy combined with sputter ion depth profiling. The surface imaging spectroscopy characterization of the CVD-LVS grown nanowires interpret the conductivity measurements of the nanowires.
