Abstract
Thin films of nickel and some face-centred cubic nickel-iron alloys have been grown epitaxially from the vapour phase on to the principal planes of rock-salt and copper, and their structure and orientation investigated by transmission electron microscopy. Conditions have been determined for the production of continuous films of thickness down to 100 Å. The mass and composition were determined microchemically; thicknesses given are on the assumption of bulk density.Keywords
