Abstract
Electron beam-induced deposition (EBID) using organometallic precursors is a promising technique for nanometre-sized fabrication, but the deposits have been mostly limited to carbonaceous materials. In this study, vapours of water and iron pentacarbonyl were mixed with precise control and the mixture used as a precursor for EBID. We have succeeded in achieving direct formation of Fe 3O4 nanostructures at room temperature. This will contribute to broadening the range of materials that can be produced by EBID.
