With these one can precisely shape a surface by sputtering it away and modify the layer beneath by radiation damage. Also one can make new alloys or compounds in very thin layers by implanting energetic ions beneath the surface.

Cornwall MichaelThompson June2009 Editor’s note: Professor Sir Michael W. Thompson was one of the early pio- neersofatomiccollisionsinsolids,whichformedtheseedfromwhichthemodern applications of ion beams in nanoscience and technology grew. His contributions includecornerstonedevelopmentsinsputteringinamorphousmaterialsandsingle crystalssputtering,surfacescatteringprocesses,andchannelling.Subsequently,Sir Michael was appointed vice-chancellor of the University of East Anglia and then Birmingham before a period working in a leading position in the financial sector afterretirementfromacademiclife. Preface Energeticionbeamirradiationisthebasisofawideplethoraofpowerfulresearch and fabrication techniques for materials characterisation and processing on a nanometrescale.Ionimplantationisincreasinglyemployedtotailorvariousmate- rialproperties,focusedionbeamscanbeusedtomachineawayanddepositmate- rial on a scale of nanometres, and the scattering of energetic ions is a unique and quantitative tool for process development in high speed electronics. More recent developments are the use of MeV proton beams and other ions to fabricate 3D nanostructures with extreme aspect ratios for tissue engineering and nanofluidics lab-on-a-chipdevices. The potency of these energetic ion beam techniques lies in the electrostatic Coulomb interaction between energetic ions and individual atoms of the material. This allows substantial amounts of energy and momentum to be transferred to a singleatomorelectroninawaythatisnotpossiblewithotherprobessuchasener- geticelectrons,photons,etc.Sincethestartofthedevelopmentofionaccelerators in the 1930s that were capable of producing high quality ion beams, energetic ion beammethodshaveplayedaleadingpartattheveryforefrontofthedevelopmentof ourmodernhightechnologysociety.Thetechnologybehindtheseacceleratorshas developed in synergy with this technological development of materials.

Since about the mid 1970s, more machines were installed for materials research than nuclear research. The requirements of energy stability and small machines led to intro- ductionofthepellet-chaincharged(Pelletron)andmorerecentlyrectifier-capacitor machines(firstusedbyCockroftandWaltoninthebeginningofthe1930s). Certainly, the development of today’s powerful personal computers and mobile communications would not have been possible without the use of energetic ion beams in nanotechnology.
