Abstract
Thin films (submonolayer) obtained by deposition of size-selected CoPt clusters on graphite surface have been synthesized. The preformed clusters can easily diffuse on the surface and gather to form “islands” or “bunches” of clusters. By changing the cluster size (in the range of 1.8 to 5.8 nm in diameter), very different morphologies can be obtained, going from large ramified islands to bunches of noncontacting clusters having the size of the initially deposited particles.
