Abstract One-dimensional semiconductor nanowires often contain polytypic structures owing to the co-existence of different crystal phase. Therefore, the understanding the properties of polytypic structures is of paramount importance for many promising applications in high-performance nanodevice. Herein, we synthesized typical III-V semiconductors, gallium phosphide (GaP) and gallium arsenide (GaAs), nanowires with zinc blende phase using the chemical vapor transport method. The growth direction ([111] and [211]) was controlled by the growth condition such as hydrogen gas flow. Various typed polytypic structures were produced simultaneously in a controlled manner. Nanobeam electron diffraction technique was employed to obtain strain mapping of the nanowires, which visualizes the polytypic structures along the [111] direction. We collected micro-Raman spectrum for individual nanowire, confirming the presence of hexagonal wurtzite phase in the polytypic nanowires. Further, we fabricated photodetectors using single nanowire, showing that the polytypic structures can decrease the photosensitivity. Our systematic analysis provides important insight into polytypic structures of nanowires.
