Formation routes and structural details of the CaF1 layer on Si(111) from high-resolution noncontact atomic force microscopy data

We investigate the CaF1/Si(111) interface using a combination of high-resolution scanning tunnelling and noncontact atomic force microscopy operated at cryogenic temperature as well as x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Submonolayer CaF1 films grown at substrate temperatures between 550 and 600 ◦C on...
