The modification of sputter-deposited films from EUROFER97 on tungsten during and after annealing were investigated in-situ and ex-situ. The annealing resulted in a densification of …
We present equipment for sample synthesis, preparation and modification enabling in-situ studies employing medium energy ion beams at the ion implanter facility of the Tandem …
We present an in-situ, depth-resolved and non-destructive approach to assess the chemical composition of titanium nitride (TiN) thin films during synthesis and controlled oxidation. Ion …
