Abstract
The results of experimental studies on pulsed laser deposition of the Au atoms on the NaCl(100) surface are reported. Under the conditions far from thermodynamic equilibrium, the spatial ordering was observed in an ensemble of gold clusters at the initial deposition stage. A mechanism based on the idea of fractal structure decomposition caused by the development of unstable concentration modes in the condensed substance is proposed.
