Abstract

Crystalline Fe and Fe-10at.%Ti and amorphous Fe-37at.%Ti films with Ag and Hf markers were produced by vapor deposition. Marker spreading during ion-beam mixing between 77 K and 580 K was measured using Rutherford Back-scattering (RBS). Marker spreading was also measured between temperatures of 300 K to 700 K after full crystallization of the Fe-37at.%Ti films. Microstructural changes during ion-beam mixing were studied in situ, in a High-Voltage Electron Microscope. Homogeneous nucleation of a metastable bcc phase was observed at high temperatures. The results are discussed in terms of their relevance to “radiation-enhanced” diffusion in amorphous materials.
