Pb on Si (111)-(7× 7) shows surprising nucleation and mass transport dynamics at odds with
standard theories. To create local imbalances on stable Pb islands we use the tip of a …

A two-step growth with deposition at low temperature and subsequent slow annealing to
room temperature (RT) has been widely used to obtain atomically flat metal thin films on …

The unoccupied electronic structure of epitaxial Pb films on Si (1 1 1) is analyzed by angle-
resolved two-photon photoemission in the Γ¯→ M¯ direction close to the Brillouin zone …

We have measured the electronic structure of thin Pb films grown on highly oriented pyrolytic
graphite (HOPG) by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Quantum well states …

With purpose to investigate influence of magnetically non-active metal layers on the Faraday
effect in multilayer Ferromagnetic/Normal metal films, dependences of the Faraday rotation …

It is shown that the Pb (√ 3×√ 3) R 30/Si (111) ordered layer is an excellent mirror for
neutral He atoms. It focuses more than 15% of the incoming He atoms into the specular …

It is known that the quantum size effects are important for the formation of morphological
properties of metal films. The regularities in the behavior of the superparamagnetic …

In the work, dependences of the Kerr rotation angles on magnetic field strength ((H) at the
longitudinal Kerr effect in multilayer nano films [Co (0.8 nm)/Cu (111)] 20 with different …

We report the observation of quantum growth behavior in a metal-on-insulator system. Using
insulating substrates, with their large band gaps, should maximize quantum confinement …

Although many groups have studied the initial growth stages of various metals, including
indium, there is little information in literature on diameter distributions of indium in relation to …
