Solid-state amorphization between thin films of two pure crystalline metals that have a negative heat of mixing is shown by Schwartz. An isothermal anneal is used to amorphize a binary crystalline structure via interdiffusion of one species, preferentially into the other. We report a metallic-glass formation by solid state amorphization in a Ni/Ti multilayered structure by low temperature annealing in the electron microscope. TEM allows us to view the composition modulation and interfaces of the Ni/Ti multilayered structure in crossection. Crossectional TEM is regularly used to view the composition modulation and interfaces of thin films. A TEM fitted with a hot-stage sample holder makes it possible to heat the cross-sectioned multilayer in-situ and record the ensuing reaction at the Ni-Ti interfaces.Ni/Ti multilayers with a period of 26 nm (55 at.pct. Ni) were fabricated by magnetron sputtering, the details and parameters are outlined elsewhere. TEM specimens were prepared for cross-section viewing with a technique similar to Bravman and Sinclair, in combination with encapsulating the epoxied pieces with in a metal tube as described by Newcomb, et al.

Low temperature annealing (<400°C) of YBa2Cu3O7x in a ozone containing oxygen atmosphere is sometimes carried out to oxygenate oxygen deficient thin films. Also, this technique can be used to fully oxygenate thinned TEM specimens when oxygen depletion in thin regions is suspected. However, the effects on the microstructure nor the extent of oxygenation of specimens has not been documented for specimens exposed to an ozone atmosphere. A particular concern is the fact that the ozone gas is so reactive and the oxygen diffusion rate at these temperatures is so slow that it may damage the specimen by an over-reaction. Thus we report here the results of an investigation on the microstructural effects of exposing a thinned YBa2Cu3O7-x specimen in an ozone atmosphere using transmission electron microscopy and energy loss spectroscopy techniques.
