| We have synthesized a new type of material of self-aligned metal silicide nanostructures of several nanometers wide and up to a few microns long from reactions of Co metal nanoparticles deposited on Si substrates at high temperatures. The orientation of these nanostructures is determined by the crystalline substrate, as they form orthogonally and hexagonally aligned nanostructures on Si (100) and Si (111), respectively. These self-aligned nanostructures (SAN) are thermally stable up to 1000ºC in air, and are chemically inert to prolonged treatment with strong acids. |
