From: Effects of crystallographic and geometric orientation on ion beam sputtering of gold nanorods
Comparison of two gold nanorods irradiated with 1.7 MeV Au ions and demonstrating significantly different sputtering effects for AuNR-4 (top row and red squares) and AuNR-5 (bottom row and blue circles). The micrographs have been rotated for presentation purposes; the directions from which the ion irradiation was incident for these two nanorods are shown in Fig. 2. The scale marker applies to all the micrographs in the figure.
