Antimony clusters of different shapes and dimensions have been obtained by evaporating antimony on graphite. The dependence of the shape and dimensions of the particles on the evaporation parameters (effective layer thickness, temperature, pressure) is discussed. A characterisation of the different structures is presented. In particular, the decoration of graphite steps is discussed. Clusters have been dislocated by means of dynamic plowing nanolithography, both in vector and in image pattern mode. The dependence of the energy needed to dislocate a cluster on its dimensions and position is discussed.
