Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We successfully for the first time fabricated semiconductor single-crystalline microspheres by laser ablation, where the surface of target materials are broken under the strong laser irradiation to obtain fine particles, in superfluid helium with extremely low temperature and low viscosity. This result is rather surprising, because it seems almost impossible to obtain single-crystalline microspheres of semiconductors which have their own crystal structures and tend to grow in their own shapes in normal conditions.
