The metastable wurtzite polymorph of CoO shows interesting properties, but has so far only be found as nanoparticles and islands on Au(111) [1,2]. Here we establish the wurtzite polymorph on Au(111) by a LEED-I(V) analysis, STM and DFT calculations.

Cobalt oxide films with a thickness of ∼ 3 nm are grown reactively on Au(111) at T = 280 K in UHV. STM identifies that films grown under oxygen poor conditions are closed with grain sizes around 20 nm. LEED-I(V) proves the structure to be oxygen-terminated wurtzite CoO (RP = 0.13), the structural parameters are in agreement with DFT calculations. Oxygen rich conditions lead instead to spinel Co3O4. Both polymorphs undergo distinctly different irreversible phase transitions upon annealing in UHV: wurtzite CoO is a precursor for rocksalt CoO(100) (T≥ 600 K), while spinel CoO converts above 800 K to rocksalt CoO(111). Films of a thickness 1 nm grow only in the wurtzite phase as identified by the conversion to CoO(100) and the observed lattice constant of 0.326 nm.
