Stoichiometric edges during the intrinsic growth of hexagonal boron nitride on Ir(111)
The growth of hexagonal boron nitride, hBN, on Ir(111) at 1150–1200 K by thermal decomposition of borazine has been monitored in situ by means of low energy electron microscopy, LEEM. A major and unexpected hBN growth induced transformation of the step morphology on Ir(111) is observed. The dominant...
