Abstract Scope |
Nano multilayers films consist of alternating layers of materials with thicknesses on the order of nanometers and typically display many attractive properties which are attributed to the fact that, as the layer thicknesses decrease, the individual layer behavior changes and the interface volume increases. In this presentation, I will show how to synthesize and characterize systems of nanostructured multilayers, leveraging nanoscale features to enhance properties and function. To address this, samples with a wide range of composition and layer thicknesses were synthesized via DC/RF and reactive magnetron sputtering. Multilayer configurations with crystalline/crystalline and crystalline/amorphous interfaces were designed as model systems in order to identify the contributions of both interface properties and composition and identify global relationships between predictions and observations of nanoscale microstructures. |
