A methodology combining non-destructive X-ray techniques is proposed to study the interfacial zones of periodic multilayers. The used X-ray techniques are X-ray emission spectroscopy induced by electrons and X-ray reflectivity in the hard and soft X-ray ranges. The first technique evidences the presence of compounds at the interfaces and gives an estimation of the thickness of the interfacial zone. These informations are used to constrain the fit of the X-ray reflectivity curves that enables to determine the thickness and roughness of the various layers of the stacks. The results are validated in the soft X-ray range where the reflectivity curves are very sensitive to the chemical state of the elements present in the stack. The methodology is applied to characterize Mo/Si (1-4 nm/2 nm) and B4C/Mo/Si (1 nm/2 nm/2 nm) multilayers. It is shown that the two interfacial zones of the Mo/Si multilayers are composed of the silicides MoSi2 and Mo5Si3. It is found that the interface thickness is about to be 0.4-0.8 nm depending on the samples. The molybdenum silicides are also evidenced at the interfaces of the B4C/Mo/Si multilayers. However, their interface thickness is 0.2 nm thinner than that of the same stack without the B4C layers, these layers being at the Mo-on-Si side or at the Si-on-Mo side. Thus, the B4C layers do not stop but only reduce the interdiffusion between the Mo and Si layers. 相似文献

B4C‐based multilayers have important applications for soft to hard X‐rays. In this paper, X‐ray grazing‐incidence reflectivity and diffuse scattering, combining various analysis methods, were used to characterize the structure of B4C‐based multilayers including layer thickness, density, interfacial roughness, interdiffusion, correlation length, etc. Quantitative results for W/B4C, Mo/B4C and La/B4C multilayers were compared. W/B4C multilayers show the sharpest interfaces and most stable structures. The roughness replications of La/B4C and Mo/B4C multilayers are not strong, and oxidations and structure expansions are found in the aging process. This work provides guidance for future fabrication and characterization of B4C‐based multilayers. 相似文献

Pd/Y multilayers are high‐reflectance mirrors designed to work in the 7.5–11 nm wavelength range. Samples, prepared by magnetron sputtering, are deposited with or without B4C barrier layers located at the interfaces of the Pd and Y layers to reduce interdiffusion, which is expected from calculating the mixing enthalpy of Pd and Y. Grazing‐incident X‐ray reflectometry is used to characterize these multilayers. B4C barrier layers are found to be effective in reducing Pd–Y interdiffusion. Details of the composition of the multilayers are revealed by hard X‐ray photoemission spectroscopy with X‐ray standing wave effects. This consists of measuring the photoemission intensity from the samples by performing an angular scan in the region corresponding to the multilayer period and an incident photon energy according to Bragg's law. The experimental results indicate that Pd does not chemically react with B nor C at the Pd–B4C interface while Y does react at the Y–B4C interface. The formation of Y–B or Y–C chemical compounds could be the reason why the interfaces are stabilized. By comparing the experimentally obtained angular variation of the characteristic photoemission with theoretical calculations, the depth distribution of each component element can be interpreted. 相似文献

The optical properties of Sc/Si periodic multilayers are analyzed at three wavelengths in the X-ray range: 0.154, 0.712 and 12.7 nm. Fitting the reflectivity curves obtained at these three wavelengths enable us to constrain the parameters, thickness, density and roughness of the various layers, of the studied multilayers. Scattering curves were also measured at 12.7 nm on some samples to obtain an estimate of the correlation length of the roughness. Two sets of multilayers are used, with and without B4C diffusion barrier at the interfaces. To see the efficiency of the B4C layers the measures are performed after annealing up to 400 °C. A dramatic change of the structure of the Sc/Si multilayer is observed between 100 and 200 °C leading to a strong loss of reflectivity. For the Sc/B4C/Si/B4C multilayer the structure is stable up to 200 °C after which a progressive evolution of the stack occurs. 相似文献

The quantitative characteristics of the interlayer interaction in multilayer W/B4C periodic compositions produced by magnetron sputtering are studied by small-angle X-ray diffraction using CuK ?? radiation and by electron microscopy of transverse cuts. It is found that approximately 0.85 nm of the tungsten layer thickness is consumed for the formation of mixed zones at layer boundaries. The mixed layers have a density of 13.4 ± 0.7 g/cm3 and contain tungsten in a bound chemical state. The effect of these mixed zones on the X-ray reflectivity of multilayer W/B4C compositions is estimated. A method is proposed to determine the layer thickness at a small number of peaks in an X-ray diffraction pattern. 相似文献

The surface and interface roughness of Mo/B4C multilayer mirrors for 7-nm soft X-ray polarizer with variable layer pairs (N = 50, 70, 90 and 110), fabricated by DC sputtering technique is investigated by atomic force microscopy and X-ray scattering and reflecting. The experimental results present that the surface and interface roughness of Mo/B4C multilayer mirrors increase layer by layer from its substrate as its Mo layer thickness greater than 2 nm, and the roughness grown tendency could be characterized by a quadratic function. 相似文献

Magnetic polarization of Mo atoms in Co96Mo4 alloy film and Co/Mo multilayered structures has been studied by X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism. Samples with Mo spacers of two different thicknesses (0.9 nm and 1.8 nm) were investigated. Mo atoms receive a magnetic moment of ?0.21μB in the alloy. In the multilayer with the thinner Mo spacer (dMo = 0.9 nm) the magnetic moment is much smaller (?0.03μB). In both cases the measured induced moment at the Mo site is oriented antiparallel to the moment at the Co atoms. The presence of the induced moment in the Mo spacer coincides with antiferromagnetic coupling between the Co component slabs. In contrast, neither measurable induced moment at the Mo site nor interlayer coupling between the Co layers has been found for the multilayer with the thicker Mo spacer. Possible mechanisms of the coupling associated with the induced moment are discussed in detail. 相似文献

A set of Mo/Si periodic multilayers is studied by non-destructive analysis methods. The thickness of the Si layers is 5 nm while the thickness of the Mo layers changes from one multilayer to another, from 2 to 4 nm. This enables us to probe the effect of the transition between the amorphous and crystalline state of the Mo layers near the interfaces with Si on the optical performances of the multilayers. This transition results in the variation of the refractive index (density variation) of the Mo layers, as observed by X-ray reflectivity (XRR) at a wavelength of 0.154 nm. Combining X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and XRR, the parameters (composition, thickness and roughness) of the interfacial layers formed by the interaction between the Mo and Si layers are determined. However, these parameters do not evolve significantly as a function of the Mo thickness. It is observed by diffuse scattering at 1.33 nm that the lateral correlation length of the roughness strongly decreases when the Mo thickness goes from 2 to 3 nm. This is due to the development of Mo crystallites parallel to the multilayer surface. 相似文献

Mo/Si multilayer (ML) systems were deposited on Si(100) substrate by DC magnetron sputtering. The MLs were annealed at temperatures up to 440 °C under high-vacuum conditions, both with and without the influence of external mechanical stress, and characterized before and after thermal treatment by means of X-ray reflectometry, wide-angle X-ray scattering and optical microscopy. Two ML configurations were compared, one composed of pure Mo and Si layers and another with additional B4C and C interlayers at the Mo/Si interfaces, respectively. The external mechanical stress applied caused bending of the substrate and adherent ML, with an accompanied internal stress of approximately 60 GPa. An important outcome of the investigation was that dedicated release bending of MLs can reduce/compensate the influences of the internal stressed states. Thermal stability could be increased for both ML systems during sample annealing. For ML samples with additional B4C and C layers at the Mo/Si interfaces, the influence of external stress was more significant compared to that for pure Mo/Si MLs. This indicates that the additional layers mainly act as diffusion barriers and additionally as stress-relaxing buffers. PACS 68.60.Dv; 68.65.Ac; 42.79.Bh 相似文献

A series of Mo/Si multilayers with the same periodic length and different periodic number were prepared by magnetron sputtering, whose top layers were respectively Mo layer and Si layer. Periodic length and interface roughness of Mo/Si multilayers were determined by small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXRD).Surface roughness change curve of Mo/Si multilayer with increasing layer number was studied by atomic force microscope (AFM). Soft X-ray reflectivity of Mo/Si multilayers was measured in National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (NSRL). Theoretical and experimental results show that the soft X-ray reflectivity of Mo/Si multilayer is mainly determined by periodic number and interface roughness, surface roughness has little effect on reflectivity. 相似文献

The results from measuring reflection factors are presented for multilayer La/B4/C mirrors with barrier layers of carbon and scandium. It is shown that a higher reflection factor is obtained by depositing a layer of carbon onto a surface of boron carbide. This effect is caused by diminishing absorption in the structure and the reduced width of transition regions. 相似文献

An La/B4C multilayer interferential mirror with small period d (4.8 nm) was produced by diode sputtering for the detection of the boron K emission by wavelength‐dispersive x‐ray spectrometry at a large Bragg angle (close to 45°). The structure of the mirror was characterized by grazing incidence x‐ray reflectometry and its performance at the energy of the boron K emission (183 eV) was evaluated by means of polarized synchrotron radiation. Spectrometric measurements showed that the La/B4C mirror improved the detection limit of boron using by a factor of 2 with respect to similar Mo/B4C mirrors and by a factor of 4 with respect to a lead stearate crystal.

Multilayer X-ray mirrors that are based on La/B4C and La/B9C and intended for the reflection of X-ray radiation in the spectral region near λ = 6.7 nm are prepared and studied. Reflection
coefficients at a level of 40–60% are achieved for mirrors with various periods. The difference in the interlayer roughnesses
reconstructed from the data measured in the hard and soft X-ray spectral regions is explained using a structural model with
an asymmetric permittivity profile in a mirror period. A proximate technique is developed to estimate the permittivity profile
in a multilayer-structure period using reflectometry data. The effect of antidiffusion Sn, Cr, and Mo barriers on the reflection
coefficient of multilayer La/B4C structures is studied experimentally 相似文献

Etched multilayers obtained by forming a laminar grating pattern within interferential multilayer mirrors are used in the soft X‐ray range to improve the spectral resolution of wavelength dispersive spectrometers equipped with periodic multilayers. We describe the fabrication process of such an etched multilayer dispersive element, its characterization through reflectivity measurement and simulations, and its implementation in a high‐resolution Johann‐type spectrometer. The specially designed patterning of a Mo/B4C multilayer is found fruitful in the range of the C K emission as the diffraction pattern narrows by a factor 4 with respect to the non‐etched structure. This dispersive element with an improved spectral resolution was successfully implemented for electronic structure study with an improved spectral resolution by X‐ray emission spectroscopy. As first results, we present the distinction between the chemical states of carbon atoms in various compounds, such as graphite, SiC and B4C, by the different shape of their C K emission band.

/Si have been fabricated by e−-beam evaporation in UHV at a deposition temperature of 150°C [1]. The composition of the as-deposited layer systems and changes
in the composition after baking the samples have been studied with high-resolution RBS. For a multilayer with a mixing ratioy/x≃2, no interdiffusion is observed up to a baking temperature of 830°C. For samples with a mixing ratioy/x≃1, diffusion is observed up to a baking temperature of 630°C, resulting in a mixing ratio close toy/x≃2. This mixing ratio remains almost stable up to ∼830°C, and considerable interdiffusion is only observed in those systems
where regions with a mixing ratio smaller than 2 still exist. Possible reasons for the high thermal stability of the samples
are the lack of a concentration gradient for Si in the system
and/or the crystallization of MoSi2. 相似文献
