Abstract
The spontaneous bending of core-shell nanowires through asymmetric shell deposition has implications for sensors, enabling both parallel fabrication and creating advantageous out-of-plane nanowire sensor geometries. This study investigates the impact of shell deposition geometry on the shell distribution and bending of GaAs-InP core-shell nanowires. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy methods are employed to quantify nanowire twisting and bending. A practical analytical electron tomography reconstruction technique is developed for characterizing the nanowire shell distribution, which utilizes the hexagonal nanowire shape to reconstruct two-dimensional cross-sections along the nanowire length. The study reveals that the orientation of the phosphorus beam with respect to the nanowire side facets induces significant variations in nanowire bending and twisting. The findings demonstrate the important role of crystallographic orientation during core-shell nanowire synthesis for engineering the shape of bent nanowire sensors.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
