The growth process of thermal oxides on Si(110) surface and the development of their interfacial bonding structures have been investigated by using real-time synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy. As a result, it was clarified that the Si$$^{3+}$$ component in the Si 2p core-level spectra is always much higher than that of Si$$^{4+}$$ for 0-1 mono-layer (ML) oxides on Si(110) surface. Observations on the time-evolution of the O 1s core-level spectrum indicates that the autocatalytic-reaction model proposed for the Si(001) oxidation can be also applicable to the Si(110) oxidation.
