Magnetism of epitaxial Tb films on W(110) studied by spin-polarized low-energy electron microscopy
J. E. Prieto, Gong Chen, A. K. Schmid +1
Thin epitaxial films of Tb metal were grown on a clean W(110) substrate in ultra-high vacuum and studied in-situ by low-energy electron microscopy. Annealed films present magnetic…
How metal films de-wet substrates - identifying the kinetic pathways and energetic driving forces
Kevin F. McCarty, John C. Hamilton, Yu Sato +8
We study how single-crystal chromium films of uniform thickness on W(110) substrates are converted to arrays of three-dimensional (3D) Cr islands during annealing. We use low-energ…
Structure and magnetism in ultrathin iron oxides characterized by low energy electron microscopy
Benito Santos, Elena Loginova, Arantzazu Mascaraque +3
We have grown epitaxial films a few atomic layers thick of iron oxides on ruthenium. We characterize the growth by low energy electron microscopy. Using selected area diffraction a…
Labyrinthine Island Growth during Pd/Ru(0001) Heteroepitaxy
Nicolas Rougemaille, Farid El Gabaly, Roland Stumpf +4
Using low energy electron microscopy we observe that Pd deposited on Ru only attaches to small sections of the atomic step edges surrounding Pd islands. This causes a novel epitaxi…
