Résumé

Soft x-ray synchrotron-radiation photoemission has been used to study the interface between Ge and SrTiO ₃(100). Mapping as annealing temperature varies reveals that Ge adsorption is strongly dependent on the SrTiO ₃ surface's initial composition: the richer the surface is in TiO _x, the more Ge wets the STO surface. Time-resolved photoemission has enabled us to monitor Ge bonding and desorption as a function of annealing temperature. As temperature increases, the Ge2 ⁺, Ge ⁺, and Ge0 component evolution reveals that Ge adatoms, initially bonded to two (or more) oxygen atoms gradually aggregate to form Ge clusters. Finally, the bonding is via a single oxygen atom, suggesting (111)-oriented clusters.
