Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of producing a high density pattern of isolated clusters on a surface of a substrate, comprising treating the surface of the substrate to produce element-adhesion sites distributed on the surface of the substrate in accordance with the pattern, depositing a first transition series element on the surface of the substrate, and forming, by diffusion and/or coalescence, clusters of the deposited element on the elementadhesion sites. The size of the clusters can be manipulated by irradiating the clusters with a low energy ion beam to cause coalescence of the clusters and diffusion of these clusters on the surface of the substrate whereby the size of the clusters is changed. The surface of the substrate can also be irradiated at a grazing angle with a low energy ion beam to modify the surface of the substrate and thereby enhance adhesion of the clusters of the deposited element to the modified surface. Finally, contact mode atomic force microscopy can be used for surface local cleaning and cluster assembling by applying an atomic force microscopy tip to the surface of the substrate and scanning with this tip a region of the substrate surface.
