Abstract
Using an atomic force microscope (AFM) operating in air, we locally modify thin films of e-beam-deposited Cr and Ti by applying voltage pulses between the AFM tip and the sample, which is positively biased with respect to the tip. The modifications consist in anodization and/or mechanical deformation and reach the metal/substrate interface. Metallic gates can thus be fabricated without pattern transfer.
