Abstract:
The oxygen-saturated Fe(001)-p(1×1)O surface has been used as a template to stabilize two-dimensional Cr oxides on Fe(001). Cr deposition at 400 ∘C leads to two different well-ordered phases, depending on the amount of Cr deposited. In the submonolayer regime a novel c(4×2) overlayer self-assembles on the Fe(001)-p(1×1)O surface, saturating for a coverage of about 0.75 monolayers. This phase becomes unstable for higher coverages, when a (5√×5√)R27∘ superstructure emerges. The structural and electronic details of the two one-layer-thick oxides are studied by combining high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy, low-energy electron diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy, and density functional theory.
