Abstract
Nucleation and growth of cobalt adlayers on the reconstructed Au(lll) surface at room temperature have been investigated by thermal energy h elium-atom scattering experiments. The specular helium intensity provi des information about the growth mode and the change in step height du ring Co epitaxy. Helium diffraction spectra further reveal the prefere ntial nucleation of small Co clusters and the formation of long-range ordered zero- and one-dimensional Co structures.
