After deposit A was written without height correction, the heights of some corner vertices were measured from a SEM image and compared to the heights defined in the geometry file geof (compare with

These differences between the platinum precursor MeCpPtMe3 and the acetylacetonate-based gold precursors Me2-Au-acac, Me2-Au-tfac, and Me2-Au-hfac become evident by the fact that atomic

In order to determine the parameters influencing the saturation state, we varied the type of surfactant, the amount of precursor loading and the size of the colloids. The results are discussed in the subsequent sections. 2.1.1 Platinum precursor and surfactant Based

However, currently one cannot exclude further factors contributing to the appearance of the saturated state. 2.1.2 Amount of platinum precursor In order to analyze the effect of Pt-precursor concentration within the colloids on the saturation diameter after oxygen plasma exposure
