Direct observation of ion-induced self-organization and ripple propagation processes in atomistic simulations
Patterns on sand generated by blowing winds are one of the most commonly seen phenomena driven by such a self-organization process, as has been observed at the nanoscale after ion irradiation. The origins of this effect have been under debate for decades. Now, a new methodology allows to simulate di...
