Formation of single-domain anatase TiO2(001)-(1x4) islands on SrTiO3(001) after thermal annealing

Scanning tunneling microscopy is used to investigate the appearance of nanoscale islands on the SrTiO3(001) surface following cycles of repetitive annealing. Atomic-resolution images reveal that the surface of the islands is covered by features typical of the anatase TiO2(001) surface reconstruction...
