Self‐Assembly of Ordered Semiconductor Nanoholes by Ion Beam Sputtering

Abstract: Low-energy-ion bombardment of semiconductors can lead to the development of complex and diverse nanostructures. Of particular interest in these structured surfaces is the formation of highly ordered patterns whose optical, electronic, and magnetic properties are different from those of bulk materials and might find technological uses. [1][2][3][4][5] Compared to the low efficiency of lithographic methods for mass production, this self-organized approach offers a new route for fabrication of ordered patterns ov… Show more

“…Typically, FIBs are based on liquid-metal ion sources (LMIS) forming Ga + ion beams; because of the very high brightness (>10 6 A/cm 2 sr) and small virtual source size (<100 nm) [139,140] of LIMS, very small spot sizes (~10 nm) and extremely high current densities (>1 A/cm 2 ) can be achieved using suitable electrostatic focusing columns. These irradiation conditions may lead to the formation of quite specific surface structures [137,[141][142][143][144][145][146][147].…”

“…Most of the published works depend on lithography-based processes such as electronbeam and lift-off [22], focused-ion-beam [23] and deep ultraviolet [24] methods. As an alternative, a bottom-up approach consisting of self-assembly procedures can be chose for the fabrication of nanoporous films [25][26][27]. The anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) is taken into account to serve as a pre-patterned substrate for template-assisted growth of the nanoporous arrays, and this method has the major advantages regarding process simplicity and low cost [6,[28][29][30][31][32].…”

“…According to the Bradley-Harper theory [4], ripples are a result of a surface instability caused by the curvature dependence of the sputter yield. It should be noted that now implantation provides a fast and reproducible means of producing a nano-scale pattern on a semiconductor surface subjected both to normal-and to oblique-incidence ion bombardment in a single process step [5][6][7].…”
