Table 2. Growth Parameters for the Four Pd Electrical Contacts Here Studied Together With the Resistance and Resistivity Values for Each Pt Nanowire.
| sample | spin-coated initial thickness [nm]a | Ga+ dose for Pd microstructures [μC/cm2] | resistance [kΩ] | resistivity [103 μΩ·cm]b |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NW_Pt-FIBID_1 | 350 | 30 | 235 | 9.2 |
| NW_Pt-FIBID_2 | 200 | 30 | 247 | 9.2 |
| NW_Pt-FIBID_3 | 125 | 30 | 147 | 5.4 |
| NW_Pt-FIBID_4 | 125 | 10 | 189 | 7.0 |
Value corresponding to the initial thickness of the spin-coated film before the Ga+ irradiation.
Value calculated considering that all nanowires have a width of 100 nm and a thickness of 30 nm.
