Bimodal growth of Au on SrTiO3(001).
We have investigated the vapor phase growth of Au on SrTiO3(001)-(2 x 1) substrates by UHV scanning tunneling microscopy. Submonolayer (ML) coverages below 300 degrees C wet the surface as disordered metastable 2D islands. Beyond 0.75 ML fcc nanocrystals with a (111) interface are nucleated and ripe...
