Abstract
Movable nanometer-scale structures are fabricated by selective etching of single crystalline Au nanoplates. The nanostructures have arbitrary shapes like gear and alphabet 'A' with in-plane size less than 500 m and thickness of $25\sim60nm$. They could be moved successfully on the substrate using a nanornanipulator installed in a focused ion beam system. Our approach is expected to be useful in fabricating various kinds of nanocomponents which can play a role as building blocks for the sophisticated nanodevices or micromachines.
