Figure 1: Dewetting of square patches patterned from a Ni(110) film. For the first row, the initial pattern edges (indicate by the dashed lines) lay along [100] (vertical) and [1-10] (horizontal) in-plane directions.  In the second and third row, the edges lay along [111] directions. Scale bars indicate 10 µm. (Note that the initial patch size was smaller for the third row than for the second row.)
