Abstract

We have analyzed the atomic structure of O/Fe(100) and interface atomic structure of MgO deposited on Fe(100) surface using LEED I/V curve analysis. As the O adsorption on the Fe(100) surface, the first substrate interlayer distance is expanded by up to 16%. For 1ML MgO deposited on Fe(100) surface, the oxygen ions of MgO are located on-top of the Fe atoms, the interlayer distance at the MgO/Fe interface are expanded. From the AIA(average intensity mixing approximation) calculation, we find the interface structure of monolayer MgO on Fe(100) system has the two interface structure with MgO/FeO/Fe(100) and MgO/Fe(100). This supports the results of EELS experiment that shown existence of stretched FeO layer and coexistance of MgO/FeO/Fe(100) and MgO/Fe(100) structure.

우리는 O/Fe(100)의 원자적 구조와 MgO/Fe(100) 표면의 계면의 구조를 LEED I/V curve를 이용하여 분석하였다. 산소를 Fe(100) 표면에 흡착시켰을 때 Fe 표면의 첫 번째 층간 간격은 약 16 % 정도 팽창하는 것을 확인하였다. 1ML MgO를 Fe(100) 표면에 성장하였을 때, MgO의 O가 Fe의 on-top 위치에 자라나는 것을 확인하였고, MgO/Fe 계면의 층간 간격이 확장되는 것을 확인하였다. AIA(average intensity mixing approximation) 계산을 사용하여 단층 MgO 성장한 Fe(100) 계의 계면구조는 MgO/FeO/Fe(100)와 MgO/Fe(100)의 계면구조를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 이것은 확장된 FeO 층의 존재를 보이고 MgO/FeO/Fe(100)와 MgO/Fe(100) 두가지 계면 구조의 공존을 보인 EELS 실험 결과를 뒷받침 한다.
