Scaling Laws of the Ripple Morphology on Cu(110)

Rusponi, S., Costantini, G., Boragno, C., Valbusa, U.·1998·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

The evolution of the Cu(110) surface morphology during low temperature (180 K) ion sputtering was studied as a function of the incident ion beam angle $\ensuremath{\theta}$ by means of scanning tunneling microscopy. The morphology was dominated by a ripple structure with the wave vector parallel or perpendicular to the direction of the incident beam. The time evolution of the interface shows that the ripple wavelength increases in time following a scaling law $\ensuremath{\lambda}\ensuremath{\propto}{t}^{z}$, with $z\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0.26\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02$. These results are ascribed to the effect of a Schwoebel barrier on the interlayer diffusion of the recoiling atoms produced during ion sputtering.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
