S. Tamada et al., EFFECTS OF NITRIDE FORMATION ON THE INTERFACE STRUCTURES OF NI C MULTILAYERS/, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 126(1-3), 1993, pp. 164-166
Structures of Ni/C multilayered films prepared by Ar sputtering and re
active sputtering in pure N2 have been investigated using X-ray diffra
ction and RBS. The higher Bragg peak intensities of nitrided multilaye
rs indicate the suppression of carbide formation at the Ni/C interface
s by nitriding particularly for carbon layers.
