The Epitaxial Growth of Nickel on Cu(100) Studied by Ion Channeling
Abstract A mixed nickel-copper film with a thickness of 1.5 nm, and an almost pure nickel film with a thickness of 10 nm, are grown by nickel carbonyl decomposition on a Cu(100) surface. High-energy ion channeling and LEED reveal that both films have grown epitaxially. The growth of the 1.5 nm, mixed film is pseudomorphic and the misfit between the film and the substrate is accommodated by elastic strain only. The magnitude of the strain is in accordance with the Equilibrium Theory of Frank and Van der Merwe. Strain and misfit dislocations accommodate the misfit between the 10 nm film and its substrate. The strain is initially larger than theoretically expected, but it is reduced to its expected value by annealing.
