Abstrakt: The authors present a simple and efficient technique for producing hexagonal arrays of nanostructures on silicon surfaces in chemical solutions. It utilizes the effect of optical near-field enhancement by self-assembled particle-lens arrays and a thermally induced chemical reaction with an alkaline solution. About 10(8) features can be produced simultaneously by one single laser pulse. Furthermore, the shape of the structures was found to be controllable, from concave holes to convex bumps, by means of a post-etching process, in the same chemical solution.
