A study of the growth and mobility of Pd nanoclusters on WO3(001) by scanning tunnelling microscopy

The growth of Pd on WO3(001) at room temperature has been studied by scanning tunnelling microscopy. Thermally evaporated Pd grows on WO3(001) c(2 × 2) as truncated hemispherical nanoparticles whose mean diameter and height increase with increasing Pd coverage. There is some indication of preferenti...
