This contribution is devoted to Study of the thermal stability and growth of gold nanoparticles supported oil SiO2/Si(111) and Al2O3/SiO2/Si(111) as a function of initial cluster size, support material and level of surface coverage. Experimental evidence for flipping of two dimensional cluster structures from vertical orientation to horizontal on the support is presented.
