註釋The influence of substrate imperfections on the nucleation and growth of fcc metals on alkali halides is discussed. Films deposited on well characterized substrated under well defined vacuum evaporation conditions are investigated. The experimental results of this work are correlated with similar work by other investigators. Models which have been proposed by various authors to explain experimental results are critically examined and areas of difficulty are pointed out. The influence of defects on nucleation rate and the orientation of the film is emphasized. Specific examples of impurity effects, irradiation effects and the influence of amorphous layers are discussed in detail. Evidence is shown that the formation of multiply twinned particles is a result of coalescence and growth. The only consistent model for the orienting influence of impurities is shown to be a chemical reaction effect. It is demonstrated that an alkali metal impurity is very likely responsible for the orienting influence of both water vapor exposure and irradiation. A negative result is found for the reported possibility of an orienting influence being transmitted through an amorphous layer.
