Length scale effect on the thermal stability of nanoscale Cu/Ag multilayers

The annealing induced grain growth (GG) and heterogeneous interface evolution of Cu/Ag multilayers with individual layer thickness (h) varying from 5 to 50nm were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results demonstrate that the thermal stability of Cu/Ag multilayers exhibits...

description The annealing induced grain growth (GG) and heterogeneous interface evolution of Cu/Ag multilayers with individual layer thickness (h) varying from 5 to 50nm were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results demonstrate that the thermal stability of Cu/Ag multilayers exhibits strong length scale dependence. For samples with h
