Realization of Large-Scale Nano-Patterned Surfaces by the UTAM-Technique — •Stefan Ostendorp, Yong Lei, and Gerhard Wilde — Institut für Materialphysik, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str. 10, 48149 Münster, Germany

Using an UTAM (ultra-thin alumina membrane) surface nano-patterning technique, large-scale arrays of highly regular metallic and semiconductor nano-particles were fabricated on silicon and sapphire substrates. The structural parameters of the synthesized nano-particles are controllable, including the diameter, spacing, and shape. Different metallic nano-particles have been oxidized using a well-controlled oxidation process in a modified CVD-system. The aim of the experiment is to obtain a core-shell nanostructure with a metallic core and an oxide shell. During the oxidation of some metallic nano-particles (chromium and nickel) on a silicon substrate, an interesting nano-porous silicon oxide surface structure with embedded metallic oxide nano-particles evolved. These surface nano-porous structures are under investigation now by AFM, EFM, SEM and TEM to determine the details of their growth mechanism.
