Ion effects in hydrogen-induced blistering of Mo/Si multilayers

Abstract: The role that energetic (>800 eV) hydrogen ions play in inducing and modifying the formation of blisters in nanoscale Mo/Si multilayer samples is investigated. Such samples are confirmed to be susceptible to blistering by two separate mechanisms. The first is attributed to the segregation of H atoms to voids and vacancies associated with the outermost Mo layer, driving blister formation in the form of H 2 filled bubbles. This process can occur in the absence of ions. A second blister distribution emerges when … Show more

“…In addition to the neutral atomic and molecular hydrogen flux, the source also produced an ion current on the order of ~75 nA. The majority of ions produced have energies >800 eV, due to the positive bias (+1000 V) used to e-beam heat the capillary 24 .…”
