Zusammenfassung:The analysis of island formation of aluminum on graphite (0001) has been carried out with LEED and AES. At submonolayer coverages and monolayer coverage, there were no superstructures observed and LEED dynamical calculation results for several structural models further confirmed no p(1 × 1) structures. Both LEED and AES intensity analysis as a function of Al exposure support the model that Al atoms aggregate to form Volmer-Weber type islands on the graphite surface.
