Abstract
X-ray photoelectron diffraction is used to investigate the epitaxial g rowth of thin high quality Ge films on Si(111). Several Ge films have been prepared with varying coverages with and without Sb terminating t he interface towards the vacuum. The measured photoelectron pattern fo r monolayer Ge films exhibits only intralayer diffraction maxima due t o the double layers formed by the Ge diamond structure. For thicker fi lms interlayer scattering between two adjacent layers can be observed as well.
