Abstract
We describe two experiments that use neutral atomic beam techniques to write nanostructures. In the chromium experiment, we have used neutra l chromium atoms to write one-and two-dimensional periodic nanometer-s cale structures in a direct way. The periodic structure is given to th e atomic beam by a laser light mask. In a second experiment, we have u sed a self-assembling monolayer as a resist for metastable helium atom s in a proximity printing experiment. (C) 1997 American Vacuum Society .
