Abstract

This paper discusses the formation of metal clusters on Xe buffer layers and the deposition of those clusters on GaAs, silica, and Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 when the Xe is desorbed. These clusters contain hundreds to thousands of atoms, and their interactions with the substrate is different from that encountered when atoms are deposited directly. Since cluster assembly alters the reaction pathway at the surface, novel structures with unique chemical and physical properties can be stabilized.
