Abstract
Rutherford backscattering analysis of the interface of Pt films deposi ted on polycrystalline Co substrates and annealed for various duration s and temperatures between 50-degrees and 700-degrees-C has given the values for the diffusion coefficients of Pt in Co and the composition of the alloys obtained. From the coefficients obtained at temperatures between 50-degrees and 200-degrees-C, where the interface is well-def ined, the activation energy Q and the frequency factor D0 have been de duced for the Pt-Co diffusion: Q = 0.102 +/- 0.015 eV/at and D0 = (0.5 1 +/- 0.24) X 10(-15) cm2/s. The composition of alloys obtained at hig her temperatures is discussed.
