Roughness Evolution of Ion Sputtered Rotating InP Surfaces: Pattern Formation and Scaling Laws
Abstract
The topography evolution of simultaneously rotated and Ar (+) ion sputtered InP surfaces was studied using scanning force microscopy. For certain sputter conditions, the formation of a highly regular hexagonal pattern of close-packed mounds was observed with a characteristic spatial wavelength which increases with sputter time t according to lambda approximately t(gamma) with gamma approximately 0.26. Based on the analysis of the dynamic scaling behavior of the surface roughness, the evolution of the surface topography will be discussed within the limits of existing models for surface erosion by 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.
