Minsk, May, 2015 Just a simple, reliable and cheap procedure 1. Ag nanoparticles deposition onto Si substrate in the aqueous solution of AgNO 3 2. Ag nanoparticles-assisted chemical etching of Si substrates in the aqueous HF and H 2 O 2 solution 3. Ag nanoparticles removal by rinsing in concentrated HNO 3 Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) First formed in the middle-1960s by vapour-liquid-solid (VLS) technique Metal-assisted chemical etching - MACE
