摘要

The introduction of stable isotopes in the fabrication of semiconductor nanowires provides an additional degree of freedom to manipulate their basic properties, design an entirely new class of devices, and highlight subtle but important nanoscale and quantum phenomena. With this perspective, we report on phonon engineering in metal-catalyzed silicon nanowires with tailor-made isotopic compositions grown using isotopically enriched silane precursors (SiH4)-Si-28, (SiH4)-Si-29, and (SiH4)-Si-30 with purity better than 99.9%. More specifically, isotopically mixed nanowires (SixSi1-x)-Si-28-Si-30 with a composition close to the highest mass disorder (x similar to 0.5) were investigated. The effect of mass disorder on the phonon behavior was elucidated and compared to that in isotopically pure Si-29 nanowires having a similar reduced mass. We found that the disorder-induced enhancement in phonon scattering in isotopically mixed nanowires is unexpectedly much more significant than in bulk crystals of close isotopic compositions. This effect is explained by a nonuniform distribution of Si-28 and Si-30 isotopes in the grown isotopically mixed nanowires with local compositions ranging from x = similar to 0.25 to 0.70. Moreover, we also observed that upon heating, phonons in (SixSi1-x)-Si-28-Si-30 nanowires behave remarkably differently from those in Si-29 nanowires suggesting a reduced thermal conductivity induced by mass disorder. Using Raman nanothermometry, we found that the thermal conductivity of isotopically mixed (SixSi1-x)-Si-28-Si-30 nanowires is similar to 30% lower than that of isotopically pure Si-29 nanowires in agreement with theoretical predictions.
