Sputtering of Cu atoms by Ar ions

Abstract

Sputtering of Cu single-crystal, polycrystal and amorphous targets by 5 keV Ar ions has been studied by the binary collision lattice simulation code Cosipo. The sputtering yields, angular distributions, energy distributions and the space distributions of the original positions of the sputtered Cu atoms have been calculated. The results are discussed within the framework of cascade generations and surface structure.
