Abstract
The Ar-ion-beam mixing of Fe/Zr bilayers is studied by conversion elec tron Mossbauer spectroscopy as a function of the thickness of the Zr s ubstrate for doses ranging from 1 x 10(14) to 1 x 10(17) at./cm(2), Th e results clearly show that the efficiency of mixing significantly inc reases with increasing thickness of the Zr substrate, The mixing leads to amorphization of the Fe/Zr system, The mixing of Fe/Zr bilayers is compared with the mixing of Fe/Zr multilayers with corresponding thic knesses of the elemental layers.
