Abstract
Pb 100− x Co x, x=0, 9, 25, 32 and 36 at.% films composed of mutually immiscible metals were codeposited by two electron beam sources in UHV system at the SiO 2/Si substrate temperature of 40°C. The samples were processed by XeCl excimer laser irradiation at the fluences F≤0.2 J/cm 2 and number of pulses n=1, 10, 100 and 1000. The samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), EDAX/SEM and by resistometry. In the films fcc Pb was found. Neither fcc nor hcp Co were detected. From RBS analyses it follows that in Pb–Co films Co segregates at the surface, even in the as-deposited state. This distribution of concentration remains almost unchanged after laser irradiation. The porosity of Pb–Co films was considerably suppressed by laser irradiation in the melting regime.
