Abstract Atomic force microscopy (AFM) images taken from an Fe‐arachidate Langmuir‐Blodgett film irradiated with 23 MeV fullerene ions gives clear evidence that craters are formed as a result of the cluster‐ion impact. The crater diameter fits into a systematic formula already found for atomic ions. The AFM images indicate that even the largest molecular ions desorbed stem from the crater volume.
