Resumo |
Pillars were fabricated by focused-ion beam (FIB) in a dual beam scanning electron microscope (SEM, FEI Quanta 3D). A multi-step milling procedure was adopted to prepare the pillars using Ga+ ion beam operated at 30 kV. The beam current was reduced from 5 nA for coarse milling down to 50 pA for fine milling, to minimize the surface damage induced by the Ga+ ion beam. The pillars were imaged at 52° tilt angle by SEM prior to the microcompression tests. |
