Molecular beam epitaxy was used to grow MnF 2 films on a Si(111) substrate with a thin CaF 2 buffer at room temperature. It was found that films thinner than three molecular layers have a cubic fluorite crystal structure inherited from CaF 2 . The MnF 2 film is coherent to the substrate and has an i
