Uniform and well-crystallized beta-Ga2O3 nanowires are prepared by reacting, metal Ga with water vapor based on the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism. Electron microscopy studies show that the nanowires have diameters ranging from 10 to 40 nm and lengths up to tens of micrometers. The contact properties of individual Ga2O3 nanowires with Pt or Au/Ti electrodes are studied, respectively, finding that Pt can form Schottky-barrier junctions and Au/Ti is advantageous to fabricate ohmic contacts with individual Ga2O3 nanowires. In ambient air, the conductivity of the Ga2O3 nanowires is about 1 (Omega(.)m)(-1), while with adsorption of NH3 (or NO2) molecules, the conductivity can increase (or decrease) dramatically at room temperature. The as-grown Ga2O3 nanowires have the properties of an n-type semiconductor.
