Nanometer-scale coatings with functional materials play an important role in many sensory, electronic and photonic applications. An international team of researchers, coordinated by Leibniz IPHT in Jena, Germany, has succeeded for the first time in observing novel growth effects of tin coatings on silicon nanometer-structured surfaces.
