Abstract

This work presents results of molecular dynamics simulations of the intermixing of a heterostructure formed by a Fe-Ag bilayer of thickness of few tens of Å. The intermixing is generated by As+ ions with energy of few eV. It has been found that the structure of the lattice has profound effects on mixing and disordering.
