The morphological change of silver nano-particles (AgNPs) exposed to an intense synchrotron X-ray beam was investigated for the purpose of direct nano-scale patterning of metal thin films. AgNPs irradiated by hard X-rays in oxygen ambient were oxidized and migrated out of the illuminated region. The observed X-ray induced oxidation was utilized to fabricate nano-scale metal line patterns using sectioned WSi2/Si multilayers as masks. Lines with a width as small as 21 nm were successfully fabricated on Ag films on silicon nitride. Au/Ag nano-lines were also fabricated using the proposed method.
为了实现金属薄膜的直接纳米级图案化,研究了暴露于强同步加速器X射线束下的银纳米颗粒(AgNPs)的形态变化。在氧气环境中用硬X射线辐照的AgNPs被氧化并迁移出光照区域。利用观察到的X射线诱导氧化,以分段的WSi2/Si多层膜为掩膜制备纳米级金属线图案。在氮化硅上的Ag膜上成功制备了宽度小至21nm的线。还使用所提出的方法制备了Au/Ag纳米线。
