Abstract
The influence of irradiation of Al or Al-based films on the surface mo rphology is studied by a number of methods. F, B, Mg, Cd, As, Sb, Ct a nd Ar were chosen as implanting species in order to cover a wide varie ty of chemical reactivities with aluminium. Implantation of boron and, to a lesser extent, of fluorine or chromium was found beneficial in s uppressing population of hillocks, predominantly those of medium or la rger size.
