Abstract

A new approach is developed, employing “in situ” electrical resistivity measurements, as a tool to study ion beam mixing of evaporated metal-metal multi or bilayers. The electrical resistivity variations measured continuously during the ion bombardment exhibit a monotonical increase and a tendency toward a saturation process allowing to detect precisely the total mixing of the film. The volume fraction of intermixed atoms can be determined within the framework of a simple conduction model. Experimental results are given in the case of Fe-Al and Al-Ag multilayers.
