      abstract     = {Iron films, grown on Cu(110) surfaces, are very rough when
                      prepared under normal growth conditions. When Fe is
                      deposited at room temperature. Stranski-Krastanov growth is
                      observed, i.e. three-dimensional (3D) islands form. Here it
                      is shown that a smooth 5 ML thick Fe film calm be grown on
                      the Cu(110) surface by depositing the film at low
                      temperature (T < 125 K) and subsequently anneal the film to
                      240 K. Since the thermodynamically stable state of the film
                      is the state where the film has a rough surface. as found
                      after deposition at room temperature. the smooth surface
                      obtained by annealing after low-temperature deposition has
                      to be considered as metastable Long-time stability of the
                      smooth film, i.e. for periods of several hours, wits found
                      at 140 K and below. Keeping the film at a temperature of 240
                      K or above results in the formation of large 3D islands as
                      evidenced by the formation of (111) facets. The mechanism on
                      which the preparation of the smooth film is based is
                      discussed in terms of a competition between smoothening of
                      the outermost, surface layer and nucleation and growth of
                      holes in time film which leads to the formation of 3D
                      islands.},
