Self-organization on surfaces: foreword
Comptes Rendus. Physique, Volume 6 (2005) no. 1, pp. 3-9.

Auto-organisation sur les surfaces : préface. Après plusieurs décennies d'intense activité, la croissance des couches minces, c'est-à-dire de systèmes de dimension deux, tend progressivement à devenir plus une question de maîtrise technologique qu'un sujet de recherche fondamentale. Dans le même temps l'auto-organisation aux surfaces de nanostructures, c'est-à-dire de dimensionnalité un voire zéro, prend une importance grandissante, tout spécialement depuis cinq ans. Alors que l'auto-organisation était initialement motivée par des perspectives d'applications, elle a pour l'instant essentiellement contribué à l'acquisition de nouvelles connaissances de physique fondamentale en basse dimension, puisque des systèmes modèles ont pu être fabriqués, qui n'auraient pu être obtenus par la technique conventionnelle de structuration qu'est la lithographie. Ce dossier thématique a pour objectif de proposer un aperçu actuel de l'auto-organisation, en essayant de dépasser les frontières de communautés. Ainsi sont rassemblées des contributions traitant de divers mécanismes physiques de l'auto-organisation, de techniques de caractérisation spécifiques, de propriétés physiques, et des nouvelles approches poursuivies pour augmenter la versatilité des procédés de croissance. Les matériaux couverts ici sont essentiellement les semiconducteurs et les matériaux magnétiques.

After decades of work, the growth of continuous thin films, i.e., two-dimensional structures, is progressively becoming a technological issue more than a field of fundamental research. Incidentally self-organization of nanostructures on surfaces is now an important field of research, i.e., structures of dimensionality one or zero, with a steep rise of attention in the past five years. Whereas self-organization was initially motivated by potential applications, it has up to now essentially contributed to the advancement of fundamental science in low dimensions, as model systems could be produced that could not have been fabricated by lithography. This Special Issue aims at giving a cross-community timely overview of the field. The Issue gathers a broad panel of articles covering various self-organization mechanisms, specific structural characterization, physical properties, and current trends in extending the versatility of growth. The materials mostly covered here are semiconductors and magnetic materials.
