摘要
The STM is used as a tool for nanostructure formation by applying a high voltage pulse. Usually these nanostructures are explained in terms of field ion evaporation, which is shown to be questionable. For the Au-Au system a new model is suggested on the basis of local melting of the tip by the Nottingham effect.
