Semiconductor nanowires are a promising system for applications in the areas of electronics and photonics as well as for exploring phenomena at the nanoscale. There are several approaches to grow nanowires at predetermined sites on the wafer. We report about growing GaAs nanowires on GaAs (111)B substrates via the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism in an ultra-high-vacuum (UHV)-cluster consisting of a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and a focused ion beam (FIB) system. Our idea is to implant metal seeds for the nanowire growth using FIB. Due to the UHV transfer between the FIB and the MBE chamber, no further cleaning step of the substrate surface is necessary. We were able to grow single nanowires in user defined patterns on the wafer. Nanowire diameters below 20 nm were observed. The structural and optical properties of the nanowires were investigated by SEM, TEM and photoluminescence spectroscopy.
