Crystallinity-dependent surface oxidation in Cu Films revealed by a visualization of surface plasmon
MS Kim, JS Kim, BN Chae, JS Lee - Current Applied Physics, 2025 - Elsevier
We visualized surface plasmon in poly-and single-crystalline Cu films by exploiting nano-
infrared imaging. We clearly observed oscillating patterns in both films which are attributed …
