The roughness and dynamic scaling behavior of the Fe-N thin films were studied by atomic force microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray scattering. The results indicate that the roughness of the surface increases with increasing sputtering time during the course of magnetron sputtering, and the surface exhibits a fractal characteristic. While the Fe-N films prepared by compound technology—combining magnetron sputtering with plasma based ion implantation are not in agreement with the fractal theory.展开更多

Compared with SEM observation, the GISAXS and SAXS measurements can get more overall structural information in a large-area scale. In this study, the two-dimensional GISAXS pattern was well reconstructed by using the IsGISAXS program. The results demonstrate that the hexagonal lattice formed by the Co nanowires is distorted （a ≈105 nm, b ≈95 nm）. These Co nanowires are isolated into many structure domains with different orientations with a size of about 2 p_m. The SAXS results have also confirmed that the nanopore structures in the AAM can be retained after depositing Co nanowires although the Co nanowires can not completely but only just fill up the nanopores. These results are helpful for understanding the global structure of the Co nanowire array.展开更多
