We report the possibility of autocatalytic synthesis of highly crystalline perfect CdTe nanowires by magnetron presputtering deposition through the windows in ultrathin layers of SiO2. The photoluminescence spectra of obtained CdTe nanowires exhibit an emission band in the 1.4–1.7 eV region, indicating crystalline perfection of the nanowires.
