摘要
The evolution of the surface topography during low-energy Ar+ ion beam erosion of silicon surfaces is studied. Depending on ion-beam parameters, a variety of nanostructured patterns with a very narrow size distribution can be developed on the surface. By rotating the sample, ordered nanodots are formed for ion energies >= 300 eV at normal and oblique ion incidence angles with respect to the surface normal. Dots evolving at oblique ion incidence of 75 degrees show a very high degree of ordering with a mean dot size gimel similar to 30 nm. Without sample rotation at near normal ion incidence angle (similar to 15 degrees), remarkably ordered ripple structures develop with a wavelength gimel similar to 45 nm. The degree of ordering and size homogeneity of these nanostructures increases with erosion time eventually leading to the most ordered self-organized patterns on Si surfaces reported so far.
