Abstract

The present invention provides silicon nanostructures and their producing method. By employing a metal-assisted chemical etching method, the bottom of the produced silicon nanostructures, connected to the silicon substrate, is porous and side etched, such that the silicon nanostructures can be easily transferred to a hetero-substrate by a physical manner.
