Abstract

Pd deposits on Ni(111) have been studied by low energy ion scattering spectroscopy. We found that two different types of epitaxial growth exist: Pd[11 2]//Ni[11 2] and Pd[11 2]//Ni[11 2] at substrate temperature of 300 K. The Pd(111) planes grow as mixed domains of 50 % each. Surface alloying of the Pd-Ni system was confirmed for deposition at 300 K in which Pd atoms displace first-layer Ni atoms, with an outward displacement of 0.4 Å with respect to first layer Ni atoms.
