Experimental Study of Surface Diffusion in Metal Overlayers on Anisotropic Metal Surfaces

  • Chapter
Atomistic Aspects of Epitaxial Growth

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((NAII,volume 65))

Abstract

We compare and discuss the diffusion kinetics of Li, Sr, Dy and Cu overlayers on the (112) Mo and W surfaces. The experimental data are used to assess the role of such factors in surface diffusion as the substrate and diffuser chemical nature, substrate atomic structure, lateral interactions, phase transitions and effect of coadsorbates.
