The construction of a UHV-MOKE system which is integrated into an existing STM-setup is described. The geometrical arrangement allows to measure hysteresis loops directly while a film is deposited. Iron layers on the (110) side walls of UHV-cleaved InAs- and GaAs-wafers were investigated up to a coverage of 100 ML. STM shows for room temperature growth a granular structure where step edges of the substrate do not influence the nucleation. MOKE data show in agreement with FMR a strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy on both substrates. The dependence of the magnetic behavior on the coverage was studied with MOKE and correlated with structural data obtained by STM. Iron cleaved-edge-overgrowth was used to obtain an ohmic contact to a 2D-Electron gas in the In-rich channel of a GaAs-HEMT-structure with no indication of the formation of a Schottky barrier.
