Nanostructure Formation by controlled dewetting on patterned substrates: A combined theoretical, modeling and experimental study

We perform systematic two-dimensional energetic analysis to study the stability of various nanostructures formed by dewetting solid films deposited on patterned substrates. Our analytical results show that by controlling system parameters such as the substrate surface pattern, film thickness and wet...
