Abstract
Chemically produced silver platelets were found to serve as ideal substrates for epitaxial experiments. The preparation, cleanliness, and perfection of these platelets are described and the epitaxial growth of iron on silver is discussed as an example. It is shown that iron deposits of average thickness as low as 1 Å may be detected via transmission electron diffraction, provided a sufficiently thin silver platelet is used as a substrate.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
