Electron microscopical observation on thin Ge and Bi films vacuum-deposited on the basal or the lateral plane of stearic acid crystals has revealed a remarkable difference in the microstructure between the deposited films on these two planes ; namely, a discontinuous island structure on the basal plane and a continuous layer structure on the lateral plane. This is available for the surface identification of the surfaces of vapor-grown stearic acid particles.
