Metallic clusters surface interaction: The case of Pd/SiOx/n-Si(100)

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik D Atoms, Molecules and Clusters

Abstract

Atomic Force Microscopy (A.F.M.) and Rutherford back scattering (R.B.S.) have been employed to study the nucleation and growth phenomena of Palladium clusters cattered onto a thin (20 Å) layer of SiOx, grown by plasma oxidation onto Si(100) doped B surface. X ray photoemission (XPS) of the 3d core level of palladium has permitted to follow the clusters silica interaction. Intrinsic final state size effect and extrinsic initial chemical state are discussed for clusters in the range of 10 to 104 atoms.
