    Abstract

    The interaction of Co thin films on atomically flat ZnO(000–1) has been investigated by low energy electron diffraction (LEED), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). A high density of islands nucleates at the earliest stages of the growth and a subsequent Wolmer–Weber growth of these islands is observed. Upon annealing at 600 °C, an atomically flat surface (Zn,Co)O(000–1) is restored due to the diffusion of the Co into the semiconductor.
