MD Simulations of High-Energy Cluster Impact on a Diamond Surface
Collaboration with
Dr. J. Gspann
at the
Institut für Mikrostrukturtechnik,
Universität und Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, Germany
Accelerated Argon or CO2 clusters (960 atoms, 100 keV/cluster)
impacted on the (111) surface of diamond consisted of more than 1,000,000
carbon atoms.
