25. Detailed information on ternary phase diagrams of Au-Cd-S and Au-Zn-S relevant to the VLS mechanism is unavailable to our knowledge. The growth temperature range used for single-source precursors (for CdS, 750-850 °C, and for ZnS, 850-1000 °C) is similar to the one reported for laser-assisted catalysis growth (for CdS, 790-870 °C, and for ZnS, 990-1050 °C).
