Abstract
⺠Initial growth of anatase TiO2(001) follows the Stranski-Krastanov mode. ⺠Epitaxial islands subsequently coalesce into oriented crystallites. ⺠The crystallites grow in units of bilayers leading to a step height of 2 monolayers. ⺠Each crystallite is dominated by either (1 Ã 4) or (4 Ã 1) surface reconstruction. ⺠A discrepancy between previous RHEED and ex-situ STM studies is resolved.
