摘要
The sputter deposition of thin magnetic NiMnSb films on MgO(001) and Si(001) is investigated by in situ x-ray scattering. It is shown that the roughness of the layers as a function of the film thickness increases according to power laws with unusually large growth exponents. The optimum growth conditions are found on the substrate MgO(001) at temperatures of 250 degrees C during the deposition. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(00)00415-0].
