Ripple coarsening on ion beam-eroded surfaces
The temporal evolution of ripple pattern on Ge, Si, Al 2 O 3, and SiO 2 by low-energy ion beam erosion with Xe (+) ions is studied. The experiments focus on the ripple dynamics in a fluence range from 1.1 × 10(17) cm(-2) to 1.3 × 10(19) cm(-2) at ion incidence angles of 65° and 75° and ion energies of 600 and 1,200 eV. At low fluences a short-wavelength ripple structure emerges on the surface t...
متن کاملAmorphous Boron containing Silicon Carbo-Nitrides created by ion sputtering
Silicon carbo-nitride films with Boron were deposited onto Silicon, glass and SS304 Stainless Steel substrates using the ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) method. The coating composition, rate of ion-assistance and substrate temperature were varied. Films were examined by X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron microscopy, Energy Dispersive X-Ray analysis, Cathodoluminescence, Atomic Force Micro...
متن کاملPoint defects in Sc2O3 thin films by ion beam sputtering.
We show that the concentration of oxygen interstitials trapped in Sc2O3 films by ion beam sputtering from metal targets can be controlled by modifying deposition conditions. We have identified point defects in the form of oxygen interstitials that are present in Sc2O3 films, in significantly high concentrations, i.e., ∼10(18) cm(-3). These results show a correlation between the increase of oxy...
متن کاملSelf-organized ordering of nanostructures produced by ion-beam sputtering.
We study the self-organized ordering of nanostructures produced by ion-beam sputtering of targets amorphizing under irradiation. By introducing a model akin to models of pattern formation in aeolian sand dunes, we extend consistently the current continuum theory of erosion by IBS. We obtain new nonlinear effects responsible for the in-plane ordering of the structures, whose strength correlates ...
متن کاملSimulating discrete models of pattern formation by ion beam sputtering.
A class of simple, (2+1)-dimensional, discrete models is reviewed, which allow us to study the evolution of surface patterns on solid substrates during ion beam sputtering (IBS). The models are based on the same assumptions about the erosion process as the existing continuum theories. Several distinct physical mechanisms of surface diffusion are added, which allow us to study the interplay of e...
