Abstract:Gold thin‐film mirrors are widely used as X‐ray reflective optics to manipulate X‐rays especially in synchrotron beamlines. Application of a thin underlying buffer layer of chromium enhances the adhesion of gold film to the substrate material and provides long term structural stability. In the present work, Au/Cr bilayers deposited using the DC magnetron sputtering technique with different thickness values on a Si substrate are studied to better understand the correlation between micro‐structure properties and… Show more
“…The combination of GI-XRF spectrometry and XRR with GI-XRD applied to Au/Cr bilayers showed 60 that relatively large residual stress existed in the gold layer when the chromium layer was small. The authors concluded that mechanically stable Au/Cr bilayer systems can be produced if the thickness of the chromium binder layer was about 100 Å.…”
