Abstract
Strained semiconductor bilayers are released from their
substrate and formed into free-standing tubes, rods and rings
on semiconductor surfaces. We present nanotubes based on the
InGaAs/GaAs, SiGe/Si, and InGaP material system. The inner
diameters of our tubes vary from 15 to > 500 nm. We present
rolled-up nanotubes, which have performed up to 30 revolutions.
The wall thickness of the nanotubes depends on the number of
rotations. as a consequence , the inner to outer diameter ratio
can be tuned over a wide range, i.e from 1 to 0.125. In the
latter case the nanotubes become nanorods. Strained layers are
bent in two directions, vertical and horizantal. The result are
ultra-thin and ring-like vertical free-standing membranes. The
wide range of possible materials and structural properties make
these tubes and rings interesting candidates for fundamental
investigations as well as for applications (C) 2002 Elsevier
