Mechanisms of solid-state dewetting of thin Au films in different annealing atmospheres

We studied the initial stages of solid-state dewetting of thin nanocrystalline Au films deposited on sapphire substrates during annealing in air and in the flow of forming gas. The interrupted annealing technique was employed to study the evolution of the size and morphology of individual holes in t...
