摘要
We report on the destructive sputtering of NiC multilayer coatings which have a periodicity of 2.7 nm, using H+ as well as Ar+ ions of 750 eV energy. The influence of ion bombardment on interface roughness, interface mixing and density has been investigated by monitoring this process in situ using a soft X-ray reflection system. Ion bombardment has been demonstrated to decrease the roughness of a sputtered surface while a considerable intermixing of the interface below the sputtered layer occurs. Changes in the film density have not been observed. © 1990.
