      Lift-off protocols for thin films for improved extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements are presented. Using wet chemical etching of the substrate or the interlayer between the thin film and the ...
    • Nano-porosity in GaSb induced by swift heavy ion irradiation 

      Kluth, Patrick; Sullivan, James P.; Li, Weixing; Weed, Ryan; Schnohr, Claudia S.; Giulian, Raquel; Araújo, Leandro Langie; Lei, Wen; Rodriguez, M. D.; Afra, Boshra; Bierschenk, Thomas; Ewing, Rodney C.; Ridgway, M.C. (2014) [Artigo de periódico]
      Nano-porous structures form in GaSb after ion irradiation with 185 MeV Au ions. The porous layer formation is governed by the dominant electronic energy loss at this energy regime. The porous layer morphology differs ...
