Abstract

Advantage and role of focused ion beam (FIB) for nanopatterning of the substrates toward the artificial control of self-assembly processes of semiconductor nanostructures are shown and discussed. Two-dimensional ZnO nanodot arrays well-ordered in size and position of the nanodots are demonstrated, for example, the nanodots with diameter of 130 ± 10 and 18 ± 5nm were two dimensionally arrayed with periods of 750 and 100 nm, respectively. Gallium implanted in the FIB-nanopatterning is suggested as a plausible reason for the selective nucleation of ZnO nanodots on nanopatterned substrates.
