Abstract
TiC/Fe bilayers deposited by ion beam sputtering have been irradiated with 340 keV Xe2+ ions up to 10(16) ions cm-2 at LN2 temperature. The samples have been analysed by means of secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) on cross-sectioned samples. An intermediate layer with an amorphous structure at the inte rface was observed after irradiation. The mixing efficiency of titaniu m is lower than that of carbon. The titanium mixing variance displays a linear relationship with fluence, while the carbon mixing variance d oes not scale linearly with fluence.
