Abstract

A series of Cu/C and CuNi/C multilayer films are prepared for potential use as normal incidence x-ray reflectors. The use of a metal alloy layer is intended to enhance layer formation without metastable metallic carbide formation. The films are characterized both in composition and structure. Addition of Ni to the Cu-rich layer is seen to markedly improve the formation of continuous metal layers.
