STM studies of surface plasmon mediated laser annealing of gold films — •Markus Schmotz, Armin Fubel, and Paul Leiderer — Universität Konstanz, Konstanz, Germany

Using a Kretschmann configuration we illuminate thin polycrystalline gold films under the surface plasmon resonance angle. Thus, a frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser locally heats the films at different intensities. The investigation of structural changes of the gold surfaces is done in situ by a homebuilt STM. To gain quantitative information we study FFT-data (fast Fourier transformation) like PSD-spectra (power-spectrum-density) and autocorrelation functions beneath typical roughness parameters like RMS (root-mean-square) and MPP-values (mean-peak-to-peak). The influence of single and multi-shot treatment is also determined at higher and lower intensities, respectively.

Preliminary results show broadening and flattening of the typical gold mounds at low intensities and thus increasing correlation lengths and grain sizes. Reproducibility checks and analysis of detailed annealing mechanisms will be reported.
