Magnetite (Fe3O4) is a very important and diverse transition metal oxide with applications in catalysis, data storage and biomedical imaging. In a recent study magnetite nanoparticles linked by oleic acid molecules show exceptional isotropic mechanical properties [1]. To give further insight on how these nanoparticles interact with organic molecules it is crucial to study flat single crystal and vicinal Fe3O4 surfaces. In this contribution, we present initial results on the adsorption of water and organic molecules like formic acid and oleic acid on the magnetite (111) and on the vicinal (112) surface under UHV conditions obtained by vibrational spectroscopy and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. We show low energy electron diffraction patterns of the vicinal (112) which allows us to conclude that this surface is indeed stable and presents regularly ordered terraces and steps.
