Small bridge

without comments

This was my entry to the EIPBN 2009 micro & nano-graph contest, titled “IBID micro-bridge / romantic yearnings”. It won in the “best video” category.

It shows live scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging of the microfabrication of a bridge by ion-beam-induced deposition (IBID) using a Ga+ beam of a platinum precursor, playback speed is 8x. It was made in a FEI Quanta 3D FEG (a dual-beam instrument).

Music is Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an exhibition – Promenade II” played by Vladimir Horowitz in 1947.
