Micro-photoluminescence measurements and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy indicated a core-shell structure and Al composition gradient along the NW axis, producing a potential minimum for carrier confinement. The core-shell structure formed during the growth as a consequence of the different Al and Ga adatom diffusion lengths.20 pages, 7 figuresMaterials ScienceSelf-directed growth of AlGaAs core-shell nanowires for visible light applicationstext
