When collimated beams of low energy ions are used to bombard materials, the surface often
develops a periodic pattern or “ripple” structure. Different types of patterns are observed to …

The formation of periodic patterns on the surfaces of many solid materials undergoing ion-
beam irradiation has long been known. The advent of high resolution characterization …

The formation of a self-organized nanoscale ripple pattern after off-normally incident ion
bombardment on the surface of amorphous materials, or on semiconductors like silicon that …

Hydrodynamic pattern formation (PF) and dewetting resulting from pulsed-laser-induced
melting of nanoscopic metal films have been used to create spatially ordered metal …

We have observed nanopattern formation with robust and controllable spatial ordering by
laser-induced dewetting in nanoscopic metal films. Pattern evolution in Co film of thickness …

This paper shows the correlation between chemical order, lattice strains, and magnetic
properties of Heusler Co 2 FeAl films epitaxially grown on MgO (001). A detailed magnetic …

Magnetism is a collective phenomenon. Hence, a local variation on the nanoscale of
material properties, which act on the magnetic properties, affects the overall magnetism in …

Pattern formation on Si (001) through 2 keV Kr+ ion beam erosion of Si (001) at an incident
angle of ϑ= 30 and in the presence of sputter co-deposition or co-evaporation of Fe is …

The production of self-organized surface nanopatterns by ion beam sputtering (IBS) at low (<
10 keV) and intermediate (10–100 keV) energies has emerged in the last decade as a …

In this study, we have investigated temporal evolution of silicon surface topography under
500-eV argon ion bombardment for two angles of incidence, namely 70° and 72.5°. For both …
