The characterization of nanoscale organic structures has improved our understanding of
porosity development within source-rock reservoirs, but research linking organic porosity …

Research examining organic-matter hosted porosity has significantly increased during the
last decade due to greater focus on understanding hydrocarbon migration and storage in …

Sigmund's model of spatially resolved sputtering is the underpinning of many models of
nanoscale pattern formation induced by ion bombardment. It is based on three …

Previous work has proposed transfer of kinetic heat energy from low-energy broad ion beam
(BIB) milling causes thermal alteration of sedimentary organic matter, resulting in increases …

It is demonstrated that the flat surface of a binary material that is subjected to normal-
incidence ion bombardment can be unstable even if the curvature dependence of the sputter …

Ion implantation is known to enhance the mechanical properties of biomaterials such as, eg,
the wear resistance of orthopedic joints. Increasing the surface area of implants may …

The roughness of a surface exhibiting a Gaussian distribution of heights is analysed,
computationally, for scans using two-and three-dimensional probes with flat and spherical …

During the ion-assisted deposition of a binary material, the ion beam can induce the
formation of nanoscale ripples on the surface of the growing thin film and compositional …

We study the time evolution of the surface composition and the atomic sputter yields when a
multicomponent alloy is bombarded with a broad ion beam. For a binary or a ternary alloy …

The effect of ion energy (E i= 45–220 eV) on the sputter deposition rate and surface
morphology of polycrystalline platinum films processed in high-density argon plasma of low …
