摘要
The Pd/beta-SiC interfaces were studied using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS). This was done with the intent of clarifying any reaction or inter-diffusion at the interface upon prolonged annealing at different temperatures in air. SIMS study indicates that the interface is stable up to 400 degreesC for at least 12 h. However, at 800 degreesC, the interface was completely degraded with significant inter-diffusion of palladium and silicon. The RBS study confirms the SIMS observations. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
