Abstract:
A nanotip apparatus which includes nanotips arranged in a pattern on a semiconductor base. Each of the nanotips have a pointed tip portion and a base portion in contact with the semiconductor base. Further, each of the nanotips include a gradient of silicon germanium (SiGe) with the highest concentration of germanium being at the pointed tip portion and the lowest concentration of germanium being at the base in contact with the semiconductor base. Also disclosed is a method in which the nanotips may be formed.
