Article Description

Field-ion microscope observation of Mo deposition on a W tip at cryogenic temperature revealed that each Mo atoms, once adsorbed on a tip, was sometimes displaced to a certain distance, due to the collision of impinging atoms. This collision occasionally brought about the rearrangement of atoms in a cluster. The rearrangement of atoms induced by the collision is considered to play a very important role, particularly in epitaxial growth on a cryogenic substrate.
