Synthesis and patterning of nanostructures of (almost) anything on anything

Nature has very stringent rules that govern nucleation and growth, but growth on a buffer layer makes it possible to circumvent those rules and fabricate a very wide range of nanostructured materials. By combining buffer layers and laser induced desorption, it is now possible to produce novel and po...

Description
Summary:Nature has very stringent rules that govern nucleation and growth, but growth on a buffer layer makes it possible to circumvent those rules and fabricate a very wide range of nanostructured materials. By combining buffer layers and laser induced desorption, it is now possible to produce novel and potentially useful nanoscale patterns.
