The nanowires have been confirmed as crystalline wurtzite GaN by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry scanning electron microscope and selected-area electron diffraction. Transmission electron microscope(TEM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) reveal that the nanowires are amorphous and irregular, with diameters ranging from 30 nm to 80 nm and lengths up to tens of microns.
