摘要: A new solution technique to grow SiC nanowires/nanorods was developed by simply heating Fe–Si melt on a graphite plate in argon atmosphere 1600 °C for 3 and 6 h. with diameters of 100 nm lengths several tens micrometres were grown the surface melt. The prototype is 3C-SiC (β-SiC), growth direction [111] 3C-SiC. Taking into consideration action Fe possible participation oxygen, mechanism nanowires proposed. It believed that formation combination solid–liquid–solid (SLS) reaction nucleation vapour–liquid–solid (VLS) process nanowire growth. In SLS reaction, carbon (solid) dissolved (liquid), then reacted silicon form nuclei (solid). VLS SiO CO (vapours) droplets (liquid) attached tip growing (solid), make them further.
