We present a SPA-LEED (spot-profile-analysis low-energy-electron-diffraction) investigation of a thin iron-oxide-layer on Ag(001). The layer was produced by reactive vapour-deposition of iron in a thin oxygen atmosphere at different substrate temperatures.

The SPA-LEED anaysis of the films produced at 300°C and 400°C has shown a hexagonal structure of the iron-oxide-layer in addition to the cubic structure of the silver-substrate. Accessorily the reflexes of the hexagonal structure split in one direction. The splitting could be explained by an height-modulation of a FeO(111)-film on Ag(001). This height-modulation acts as a phase-grating for the diffracted electrons.
