Abstract :
Arrays of nanowires of 32 nm high, with a periodicity of 134 nm were produced over an area of several square micrometers with 2 keV Ar+ ion bombardment at 72° incidence angle to surface normal to a dose of 2×1017 cm-2. The formation of ripples and nanowires is believed to arise from mergence of tailed cones agglomerated from In ions due to the preferential sputtering of P from InP.
