Gold-Catalyzed Process for Creating Patterns of Channels with Nanoscale Dimensions

Caption

Electron micrograph of surface-directed nanochannels formed on the surface of the semiconductor indium phosphide. Nanochannels are formed using a gold-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid etch process and their locations are defined by the deposited gold pattern.
