The main aim of this project was to peel off the epitaxially grown nanowires (NWs) from their native substrate and transfer them to the cheaper carrier substrate in order to make solar cell device from transferred NWs. Potentially the peeling and transferring idea is about to decrease the cost of NWs growth by reusing the native substrate especially for expensive material such as InP and GaAs whic
Al2O3 and SiO2 films were synthesized using Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) at low temperature of 250 °C. Thermal ALD Al2O3 using Al (CH3)3 [trimethylaluminum (TMAl)] and H2O as precursors and plasma ALD Al2O3 using Al (CH3)3 [trimethylaluminum (TMAl)] and O2 plasma as precursor and oxidant, respectively. To grow SiO2 films Bis (diethylamido) silane as Si precursor and O2 plasma as oxidant were used
