Abstract

The efficiency of interfacial ion mixing is measured for metal/Al (metal=Ti, Cr, Ni, and Mo) thin-film bilayers irradiated with 285 keV Xe + ions near 77 K. The results indicate that, as a group, mixing of 3d-metal/Al pairs irradiated by Xe can be explained by neither a pure binary collision cascade nor a pure thermal spike model. Such a situation should exist; that it should be found at the average atomic numbers of the present bilayers is consistent with recent theoretical predictions.
