Abstract

The initial stages of growth of thin metal films are studied by the combination of direct measurement (two sets of In and Ag films with various thicknesses) and computer simulation (two models). Both the micrographs of island films from TEM and the modelled photographs are analysed by the same program based on eight morphological algorithms. The results are used for the critical comparison of various hypotheses of thin film growth.
