Abstract

The size dependence of the melting temperature T m of nanoscale metal (Sn, Cu) films on solid substrates made of another high-melting metal and carbon is studied. It is established that an increase in the melting temperature must be observed for metal films on C substrates as the film thicknesses decrease. For a system consisting of a metal film on the surface of another metal, the dependence of the melting temperature on the film thickness is less pronounced and corresponds to a decrease in T m with decreasing h (h is the film thickness).
