The silver nanostructures obtained by thermal vacuum deposition on the Si(111) surface are investigated by high-resolution tunnelling microscopy. As revealed, the silver on the silicon surface can form nanostructures consisting of atomic planes. Metallic nanoformations can take the shape of regular hexagons. For these structures, minimum height of the step growth varies up to 0.23 nm. Specific peculiarities of the nanorelief transformation with the sample-temperature increasing are detected as a result of horizontal displacement due to surface drift. The possibility of preserving of the Si(111) 7$\times$7 structure is presented.

Key words: surface nanorelief, nanoroughness, metal monolayer, thermal spraying.
