Arrays of Si/Mn27Si47 core/shell nanowire (NW) are synthesized by an in situ reaction between Si NW arrays and MnCl2. Results from XRD and transition electron microscopy (TEM) indicated that the shells have single-crystalline tetragonal Mn27Si47 structure with the axial direction perpendicular to (204) face. The thickness of the Mn27Si47 shell can be controlled by adjusting the growth conditions. The Si/Mn27Si47 NW arrays exhibited enhanced ferromagnetism compared with the bulk higher manganese silicides (HMS). The Curie temperature of the Si/Mn27Si47 core/shell NW arrays is about 150 K, which is much higher than that of the bulk HMS. Due to the excellent compatibility of Si/Mn27Si47 with Si-based nanowire devices, these core/shell structures should have wide potential applications in the Si-based self-assembly nanowire devices.
