The effect of the thermal stabilization regime within the first temperature zone of Movchan–Demchishin model of the formation of films on the structure and electrical conductivity of silver, copper, and gold films formed under ultrahigh vacuum conditions by the method of frozen condensation of a thermally evaporated metal vapour on amorphous dielectric substrates, preliminarily coated with underlayers of subatomic thickness, is investigated. The possibility of stepless control of the average linear dimensions of crystallites in a metal condensate is confirmed by joint use of a surfactant underlayer of a substance (germanium), which counteracts the coalescence of metal crystallization nuclei, and the choice of a film thermal stabilization mode. A theoretical description of the dimensional dependences of the electrical conductivity of films is implemented using the created theoretical models.

Key words: thin metal films, underlayers of subatomic thickness, electrical conductivity of films, thermal stabilization, zone of Movchan–Demchyshyn.
