The observation by electron diffraction of a “superlattice” in annealed nickel single crystal films

Thin single crystal films of high purity titanium were needed in our laboratory for investigations of the early stages of the oxidation of titanium. Experiments were carried out to determine the feasibility of preparing single crystal titanium films of different orientations by evaporation onto the (100), (110) and (111) surfaces of rocksalt. The structures of these films were investigated by transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction.

In this work we studied the anisotropy of the transverse magnetoresistance of single-crystal nickel films. The measurements were carried out on samples whose surface plane coincided with the [001] cavity. Studies of magnetoresistance in a monocrystalline nickel film showed tensile stresses acting on it from the side of magnesium oxide. The modification of the magnetization anisatropy of the film on the substrates as compared with the free sample is apparently associated with a change in the shape of the Fermi surface of the carriers.

A Current

Palladium single-crystal films have been prepared by Matthews in ultra-high vacuum by evaporation onto (001) NaCl substrates cleaved in-situ, and maintained at ∼ 350° C. Murr has also produced large-grained and single-crystal Pd films by high-rate evaporation onto (001) NaCl air-cleaved substrates at 350°C. In the present work, very large (∼ 3cm2), continuous single-crystal films of Pd have been prepared by flash evaporation onto air-cleaved (001) NaCl substrates at temperatures at or below 250°C. Evaporation rates estimated to be ≧ 2000 Å/sec, were obtained by effectively short-circuiting 1 mil tungsten evaporation boats in a self-regulating system which maintained an optimum load current of approximately 90 amperes; corresponding to a current density through the boat of ∼ 4 × 104 amperes/cm2.

Reflection Electron Microscopy

The formation of oxide structures on single crystal films of metals has been investigated using the REMEDIE system (for Reflection Electron Microscopy and Electron Diffraction at Intermediate Energies) (1). Using this instrument scanning images can be obtained with a 5 to 15keV incident electron beam by collecting either secondary or diffracted electrons from the crystal surface (2). It is particularly suited to studies of the present sort where the surface reactions are strongly related to surface morphology and crystal defects and the growth of reaction products is inhomogeneous and not adequately described in terms of a single parameter. Observation of the samples has also been made by reflection electron diffraction, reflection electron microscopy and replication techniques in a JEM-100B electron microscope.A thin single crystal film of copper, epitaxially grown on NaCl of (100) orientation, was repositioned on a large copper single crystal of (111) orientation.
