Growth of GaN@InGaN Core-Shell and Au-GaN Hybrid Nanostructures for Energy Applications

Figure 4

SEM images taken (a) before and (b) after growth of gold nanoparticles on GaN nanowires. (b) Gold nanoparticles can clearly be seen to decorate the surfaces of the GaN nanowires, the inset shows a close up of a single wire with multiple particles attached. (c) EDS of the particles taken by TEM confirms that they are gold.
