Phase diagram for nanostructuring CaF surfaces by slow highly charged ions
A. S. El-Said, R. A. Wilhelm, R. Heller +6
Impacts of individual slow highly charged ions on alkaline earth halide and alkali halide surfaces create nano-scale surface modifications. For different materials and impact energ…

Potential energy threshold for nano-hillock formation by impact of slow highly charged ions on a CaF(111) surface
A. S. El-Said, W. Meissl, M. C. Simon +9
We investigate the formation of nano-sized hillocks on the (111) surface of CaF single crystals by impact of slow highly charged ions. Atomic force microscopy reveals a surpris…
