Abstract We have grown by means of Molecular Beam Epitaxy ultrathin (1 to ∼ 10 ML) films of fcc Fe and Co on a Cu(001) surface, thus stabilizing this high temperature phase of bulk Fe and Co at room temperature. All films, including the single monolayers, are ferromagnetic. The Co films are magnetized in plane, independently on the thickness. Fe films thicker than 2 ML are magnetized along the film normal. Up to now, the statistical uncertainty is still too large to conclusively prove an enhancement of the magnetic moment for the thinnest Co films.
