Towards a full integration of vertically aligned silicon nanowires in MEMS using silane as a precursor

Silicon nanowires present outstanding properties for electronics, energy, and environmental monitoring applications. However, their integration into microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) is a major issue so far due to low compatibility with mainstream technology, which complicates patterning and con...
