Abstract
Self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) in the Ni3N/SiO thin-film bilayer system was studied. The results reveal an oscillating character of the SHS process during the deposition of Ni3N onto SiO. The oscillations a re accounted for by the fact that there is a critical thickness of the nick el nitride layer below which the SHS process is impossible. The mechanism o f the reaction between Ni3N and SiO layers is examined.
