Abstract
This work reports on the influence of nickel (Ni) thickness on the growth of nickel silicide nanowires (NiSi NWs) using a solid-phase diffusion controlled growth treatment. The NiSi NWs were grown on two different substrates (i.e. crystal silicon (c-Si) and Ni foil) which were coated with Ni film with different thicknesses; 110
