Abstract
Provided are methods of forming nanostructures, methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices using the same, and semiconductor devices including nanostructures. A method of forming a nanostructure may include forming an insulating layer and forming a nanostructure on the insulating layer. The insulating layer may have a crystal structure. The insulating layer may include an insulating two-dimensional (2D) material. The insulating 2D material may include a hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). The insulating layer may be formed on a catalyst metal layer. The nanostructure may include at least one of silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), and SiGe. The nanostructure may include at least one nanowire.
