We observed for the first time fractal patterns of silver growth on tin oxide (SnO$\sb2)$ films under appropriate operating conditions. The pattern growth processes and structures were studied by SEM, AES, and XRD. It was found that the size of patterns varied from ten to hundreds of micrometers with a branch diameter of about 2 micrometers. The patterns were formed by Ag and AgCl with a thin layer of silver oxide on the surface.

520 $a We observed for the first time fractal patterns of silver growth on tin oxide (SnO$\sb2)$ films under appropriate operating conditions. The pattern growth processes and structures were studied by SEM, AES, and XRD. It was found that the size of patterns varied from ten to hundreds of micrometers with a branch diameter of about 2 micrometers. The patterns were formed by Ag and AgCl with a thin layer of silver oxide on the surface.
520 $a The patterns obtained from our experimental method have both fractal and dense packed structures. The fractal dimension of the clusters was determined to be 1.69 $\pm$ 0.03, in excellent agreement with the theoretical value of 1.70 $\pm$ 0.02 predicted from the diffusion limited aggregation model (DLA). We also confirmed that the active zone of the cluster can be described by a Gaussian probability distribution function that is characterized by two parameters r$\rm\sb{N}$ and $\rm\sigma\sb{N}$ with two exponents, which were found to be $\upsilon$ = 0.607 $\pm$ 0.013 and $\upsilon\sp\prime$ = 0.512 $\pm$ 0.026 for our clusters, in good agreement with theoretical values calculated from Monte Carlo simulation.
520 $a It was suggested that the pattern growth process in our experiment is basically an aggregation process which can be described theoretically by the DLA model where random walk trajectories are assumed. The pattern appearance and disappearance are believed to be associated with the decomposition of silver oxide and the oxidation of silver at around the decomposition temperature of 300$\rm\sp\circ C.$
520 $a Another interesting subject (part II) in the thesis was to investigate the silver clusters acting as catalytic activators in SnO$\sb2$ gas sensors. Surface silver additives on SnO$\sb2$ thin film gas sensors effectively improved the sensor performance to H$\sb2.$ The sensitivity was increased by at least a factor of 10 and the sensor recovery time decreased after the surface silver addition onto the SnO$\sb2$ surface. The sensitivity was found to be dependent on the operating temperature of the sensors and the amount of Ag additives that influences the cluster details. The experimental results showed that the best performance of sensors could be achieved by evaporating a Ag layer of 40 to 60 A, and operating at temperatures around 300$\rm\sp\circ C.$ The effect of silver additives onto SnO$\sb2$ thin film gas sensors was studied and models for the promotional role of these additives are presented in the final chapter of the thesis.
