摘要
We report on the growth of single crystalline epitaxial Bi films on W(110). X-ray photoelectron diffraction (XPD) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) reveal that Bi grows well ordered in the pseudocubic (001) orientation. The two-fold symmetric W(110) surface supports four different Bi(001) domains. The multi-domain nature is unambigously detected via LEED showing a peculiar splitting of spots. It is shown that a preferential domain alignment along the [001](tungsten)-direction accounts for this observation and is in agreement with a two-fold XPD pattern. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
