Abstract
We report in-situ SMOKE of ultra-thin Fe deposits on Si(111) and Si(10 0). Perpendicular magnetisation is observed for growth at 100 K on bot h substrates but not for growth at 300 K. We correlate the structural and magnetic phase diagrams and we suggest that growth at the lower te mperature leads to deposits of more uniform thickness. We attribute th e observation of a region of canted magnetisation to inhomogeneity in the deposit.
