Abstract

FexAg1-x (x=0.20-0.65) and Fey Cu1-y (y=0.50-0.75) nano-multilayers were prepared by alternative deposition of pure constituent metals. Ion mixing of the multilayers by 200 keV xenon ions at 77K resulted in the formation of a similar metastable phase with a big lattice of cubic structure, when the ion dose exceeded 1×1016 and 1×1015 Xe+/cm2 for Fe/Ag and Fe/Cu systems, respectively. The fraction of the new phase emerged in the alloy films increased with increasing ion dose in both cases.
