Abstract

The morphology characteristic of acid-washed and annealed MgO (100) surfaces used as substrates for pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) is studied employing TEM, SEM and AFM. Each of these three microscopal techniques provides information not so readily accessible by and complementary to the other two techniques, leading to a more rounded view of the characteristic morphology of these surfaces.
