Abstract: We present in this work the TEM results on the nucleation and growth process of antimony particles on graphite produced by low-energy cluster beam deposition. In order to acquire more details about the first stages of film growth, we compare the experimental results with a new theoretical model named “Deposition-Diffusion-Aggregation”. Moreover this comparison allows an estimate of the diffusion coefficient D for antimony clusters of 5-nm diameter on graphite; we findD≈10−8cm2/s.
