We give an insight into the temperature dependent growth of Cr on Ru(0001) using scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). At room temperature the growth is not purely layer-by-layer. Annealing of the resulting Cr layers to 500 and 700 K leads to the formation of Cr islands with a bcc(110)-like structure. A complete pseudomorphic Cr monolayer could be prepared for evaporation at 700 K. By applying a countervoltage at the end of the electron beam evaporator to suppress the Cr ions leaving the evaporator smoother Cr layers are obtained. The formation of a Cr-Ru surface alloy with a Cr:Ru ratio of 1:2 at 1000 K was observed; on this alloy CO molecules adsorb predominately at Ru sites in on top geometry. The conclusions are discussed in the light of Auger electron spectroscopy and temperature- programmed desorption results [1]. Supported by the Max-Buchner-Stiftung.
