摘要
It is demonstrated that redeposition of sputtered material is a nonlinear effect in experiments on pattern formation induced by ion bombardment of solid surfaces. As a result, redeposition is not the physical mechanism responsible for the formation of the highly regular hexagonal arrays of nanodots sometimes produced by normal-incidence ion sputtering.
