Abstract
The experimental conditions to condense epitaxial films of silver, palladium and silverpalladium alloys onto (100) air-cleaved MgO faces by glow discharge sputtering are related. The orientation (100)d//(100)s (where d indicates deposit and s substrate) is observed for the two last systems. The films are characterized by THEED, RHEED, SAD, TEM and AES. The bulk composition of the alloys is determined by ICP. The surface purity of the condensed films is examined and discussed.
