摘要: Abstract Electron beam evaporation with optimized deposition parameters has been used to grow good quality epitaxial Cu/Nb nanoscale multilayered films on sapphire substrates. The of the films, as measured by intensities and widths X-ray diffraction peaks, increases increasing temperature. However, high temperatures also enhance tendency for layer pinch-off which eventually leads spheroidization growth multilayer polycrystalline islands. Deposition rates were produce highest continuous nanolayers, suitable in situ deformation experiments a synchrotron-based Laue micro-diffraction set up.
