ABSTRACTGold nanowires were fabricated on the stepped MgO (100) surfaces. The stepped MgO (100) surfaces were produced by polishing (100) surfaces at an inclined angle ∼1° toward a [110] direction. An atomic force microscope image indicates that gold nanowires have grown at the steps on MgO (100) surface with a height of ∼ 2 nm and a width of ∼60 nm.

An etch pit shape of off-angled 4H-SiC Si-face formed by different halogen gases such as chlorine trifluoride (ClF3) and a mixed gas (O2+Cl2) of oxygen and chlorine in nitrogen (N2) ambience has been studied. One kind of etch pit with the crooked hexagon was formed at etching temperature under 500oC. The angle of etch pit measured by the cross-sectional atomic force microscope image was about 10o from the [11-20] view. A dislocation type of the etch pit was discussed in comparison with the etch pit shape and an X-ray topography image.

This article reports on the first successful combination of micro Laue (µLaue) diffraction with an atomic force microscope forin situnanomechanical tests of individual nanostructures.In situthree-point bending on self-suspended gold nanowires was performed on the BM32 beamline at the ESRF using a specially designed atomic force microscope. During the bending process of the self-suspended wire, the evolution of µLaue diffraction patterns was monitored, allowing for extraction of the bending angle of the nanowire. This bending compares well with finite element analysis taking into account elastic constant bulk values and geometric nonlinearities. This novel experimental setup opens promising perspectives for studying mechanical properties at the nanoscale.
