We have made a study of the use of NO as the source of oxygen in the MBE-growth of iron oxides thin films. It is found that NO is a much more efficient oxidizing agent than molecular O . As indicated by Moessbauer spectroscopy, performed on Fe probe layers, NO is not only capable of forming stoichiometric magnetite Fe O , but also all non-stoichiometric Fe O phases. Even the metastable maghemite phase γ-Fe O (Fe O with δ = 1/3) can be formed. All iron oxides grow layer-by-layer-like, as indicated by strong RHEED intensity oscillations. When small doses of NO are used, new wustite Fe O and Fe O phases are formed. In contrast to the Fe O films, these phases have nitrogen incorporated into the crystal lattice. Similar compounds are obtained when NO is used as the source of oxygen. The use of N O does not lead to the formation of iron oxides. It does, however, alter the growth mode of Fe on MgO(100). Whereas Fe deposited under UHV conditions forms 3D islands, the N O acts as a surfactant and induces 2D layer-by-layer growth. 2 2 2 2 3 4 3-δ 4 2 3 3-δ 4 2 1-x 3 4 3-δ 4 2 2 57
