摘要
Experimental studies have been performed on unisize tungsten clusters constructed on a graphite surface by means of the scanning tunneling microscopy. It was found that the geometry of the clusters changes instantaneously from a monatomic-layer tungsten disk to a diatomic-layer structure between the cluster size of 10 and 11. We concluded that this transition is driven by a change in the dominant interaction from the attractive electrostatic interaction between the cluster and the surface to intracluster cohesive metallic interaction.
