Abstract
It is shown why the epitaxial growth of high quality metallic superlattices generally requires a growth temperature approximately 3Tm/8 and two components having similar melting temperatures Tm. A general observation of RHEED oscillations from growing metal surfaces at temperatures approximately Tm/8 is also predicted.Keywords
