We have developed a solution-phase synthesis of crystalline GaAs and InP, according to the equation below, that makes use of the Solution-Liquid-Solid (SLS) mechanistic pathway. The SLS mechanism is analogous to the previously known, Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) mechanism, which is conducted at higher temperatures under CVD conditions. The formation of crystalline semiconductors under SLS conditions requires both a molten flux and protic catalyst to be present. The material produced consists of polycrystalline, zinc-blende fibers and whiskers with a [111] growth direction, as analyzed by selected-area diffraction in the TEM.
