• Co3O4(111) films with the spinel structure [13][14] show evidence for an apparently unreconstructed (1×1) surface, the stability of which was proposed to be based on a Co2+/Co3+ inversion process leading to charge compensation. In the present case of MgAl2O4(111), no previous experimental studies are
