The phenomenon of oxygen adsorption induced surface restructuring is widespread across various metal-oxygen systems, yet its impact on initiating bulk oxide formation remains largely unexplored. Through in situ atomic-resolution electron microscopy observations of surface oxidation of Cu(110) and Cu85Au15(110), we unveil intermittent oxide-film growth modulated by oxygen-induced surface restructuring.

AbstractRecent research in multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) has increasingly focused on the role of short-range order (SRO) on material performance. However, the mechanisms of SRO formation and its precise control remain elusive, limiting the progress of SRO engineering.
