Abstract
We have studied the dynamic behavior of the Ge(001) surface during sputtering in situ and in real time using synchrotron X-ray diffraction. We find two dynamic regimes as a function of surface temperature and sputter current which are separated by a sharp transition. The boundary between these two regimes follows an Arrhenius behavior with an activation energy of about 1 eV for the relevant diffusion process.
