Analytical description of the metal-assisted growth of III–V nanowires: Axial and radial growths
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The growth of III–V nanowires from metal seed particles is described in an analytical manner within the framework of a material conservation model. Direct impingement of growth species on the particle, coupled to their diffusion from the sidewall and the substrate surface, are considered in the derivation of expressions for the time evolution of both axial and radial growths. Two regimes are distinguished: the structure originally grows in a purely axial manner until its length exceeds the diffusion length of adatoms incoming from the substrate, at which point sidewall nucleation is triggered, resulting in a shell expanding radially in the lower part of the wire. Factors that take into account the nonunity probability of inclusion of group III adatoms in the axially growing crystal are introduced. Moreover, a step-mediated growth is included to describe the axial evolution of the shell. The numerical values of the various parameters were assessed by fitting the model to experimental data on the morphology evolution of molecular-beam-epitaxy-grown GaAs and InAs nanowires.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
