ABSTRACTThe results of a transmission electron microscopy study of Co/Au and Co/Pd multilayers are reported. Special emphasis is put on the epitaxial growth and the relaxation of the misfit strain of these high misfit systems. In bright-field cross-sectional images, periodic contrast fringes are observed at the interfaces, which are the result of Moiré interference and which allow determination of the degree of misfit relaxation at the interface. It was established that 80-85% of the misfit is relaxed. From high resolution electron microscopy images the Burgers vector of the misfit dislocations was derived, being a/2<110> lying in the (111) interface plane. The results obtained for the Co/Au and Co/Pd multilayers will be discussed in comparison with those obtained for a bilayer of Co and Au.

Single-crystal 6H–SiC wafers were irradiated at 300 K with 50 keV He+ ions to fluences ranging from 7.5 to 250 He+/nm2. Ion-channeling experiments with 2.0 MeV He+ Rutherford backscattering spectrometry were performed to determine the depth profile of Si disorder. The measured profiles are consistent with SRIM-97 simulations at and below 45 He+/nm2 but higher than the SRIM-97 prediction at both 100 and 150 He+/nm2. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy study indicated that the volume expansion of the material is not significant at intermediate damage levels. Results from elastic recoil detection analysis suggested that the implanted He atoms diffuse in a high-damage regime toward the surface.
