• after single-ion irradiation. The left-hand image shows the aimed targeting of chromo centers (red crosses) for single-ion irradiation by using Hoechst 33342 (grey scale) as a marker in the nuclei of living MEF cells. The right-hand image shows the same nucleus after fixation at 5 min after irradiation

• laser heating [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20], ion irradiation [21][22][23][24], and electron irradiation [25]. Dewetting proceeds by surface diffusion even in the solid state well below the melting temperature of the film [9][10][11]. In addition, metals such as Ni, Ag, Co, and Au have a weak
