摘要
We have investigated the inter-face roughness in Au/Ni multilayers by scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and small angles X-ray scattering. The comparison of the roughness statistical parameters deduced from these two techniques is reported. A good agreement is found for the xi values but not for the h values. A linear relationship between xi and the grain size has been evidenced from STM images and numerical simulations. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
