The aim of the project is to study thermal stability of layered systems, interdiffusion, changes of interface roughness and inelastic relaxations using high resolutin x-ray methods during annealing in situ. We will mainly contrate to the very first steps of interdiffusion and relaxation in multilayers Nb/Si and Fe/Si, when these structures start to lose desired electrical parameters (superconductivity, magnetoresistivity). The x-ray measurements will be combined with TEM observation. The results of stru cture analysis will be correlated with electrical measurements (low temperature resistivity for Nb/Si and resistivity in magnetic field for FeSi) and with deposition parameters. Within this project a high temperature chamber will be designed for providin g in situ x-ray measurements in vacuum better then 10-5 torr.
