Homogeneous 
layers are prepared by vapor
deposition. Electrochemical doping with 
ions leads to
the formation of nanostructures on a 20
to 50 scale.
It is shown by means of Monte Carlo simulations that this process
can be understood as a decomposition of 
x
,
0.1<{x}<3, with respect to the distribution of the
ions and subsequent local phase transformations into
α- regions and 
clusters.
The metallic clusters are used as electrodes
for nanometre-scale metallization of the layers.
