Single Gallium/Gallium(hydr)oxide Ga/GaOxHy layers were prepared by induced break-up after forced wetting. Multilayers were formed by repeating the deposition procedure. X-ray reflectivity shows a multilayer structure. The repeat unit consists of a Ga layer covered by a GaOxHy layer (thickness 2.9 nm). The multilayer thickness is proportional to the number of deposited layers. The multilayer-air roughness may be smaller than the substrate-multilayer roughness, which is attributed to the large surface tension of Gallium. The electric conductivity of a multilayer follows Ohm*s law. The sheet resistance decreases with the number of deposited layers. We suggest that induced break-up after forced wetting is an environmentally friendly way to produce large ultrathin conductive layers from fluid metals.
