Abstract
The interface formation and electronic structures of the Mn/GaP(100) i nterface are studied with synchrotron radiation photoemission. At the early stage of Mn deposition, Mn covers the whole GaP(100) surface. Wi th the increase of coverage, Ga atoms can be exchanged by Mn atoms and diffuse into the Mn overlayer. However, P atoms remain always near th e interfacial region. A significant difference of the electronic struc tures is observed between the ultra-thin and the thick Mn films. The e xplanations for this are given in the text.
