Abstract

Abstract: In this work we study features of vapor-solid-liquid mechanism of nanowire growth. We consider variation of droplet volume during the growth caused by droplet depletion and refilling. Here we take into account the changes in material transport due to volume variation, which was neglected previously. We also discuss the impact of this effect on nanowire length distributions.
