Abstract:
The results of studying the surface of 15- to 100-nm-thick bismuth films by atomic-force microscopy are reported. The near-linear character of the dependences of the average surface roughness and the average height of growth patterns on the film thickness is established. It is found that the average crystallite size increases, as the film thickness is increased. A slight dependence of the crystallite size on the film thickness is observed at thicknesses in the range of 27–70 nm.
