TL;DR: The scanning probe lithography (SPL) is a critical nanofabrication method with great potential to evolve into a disruptive atomic-scale fabrication technology to meet these demands as discussed by the authors .

TL;DR: In this article, the wear mechanism of diamond during the atomic force microscope (AFM) tip-based nanomachining of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) using molecular dynamics simulations was investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, three representative temperatures 600 K, 900 K and 1200 K (below the melting temperature of ~1511 K) were used to cut GaAs to benchmark against the cutting performance at 300 K using indicators such as the cutting forces, kinetic coefficient of friction, cutting temperature, shear plane angle, sub-surface damage depth and stress on the diamond tip.

TL;DR: In this article, a molecular dynamic simulation was adopted to study the ductile response of single-crystal GaAs during single-point diamond turning (SPDT), and the variations of cutting temperature, coordination number, and cutting forces were revealed through MD simulations.

TL;DR: A novel atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based 5-axis nanoscale machine tool developed to fabricate nanostructures on different annuli of the micro ball has the potential to prepare the inertial confinement fusion target with the expected dimension defects, which would advance the application of the AFM tip-based nanomachining approach.
