<div style="font-size: 15px; ">A colleague is interested in setting up a lab which will include silicon nanowire growth via CVD. I would appreciate the community's feedback on possible equipment vendors as well as insights on any particular operational & safety
considerations related to setting up such a capability. While we have in-house experience with typical PECVD & LPCVD processes for SiN, PolySi, etc., none of us here have worked with such nanowire growth systems. We would greatly appreciate hearing from those
of you whom have.</div>
