摘要：

Simultaneous self-diffusion Measurements of Fe and N in amorphous Fe86N14 alloy using secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) arc reported. In addition, neutron reflectivity (NR) was used to study the Fe self-diffusion in the same compound. The broadening of a tracer layer of (Fe86N14)-Fe-57-N-15 sandwiched between Fe86N14 layers was observed by SIMS measurements after the annealing of films at different temperatures. A decay of the Bragg peak intensity after isothermal annealing was also observed in [Fes(86)N(14)/Fe-57(86) N-14](10) multilayers in NR. It was observed by SIMS measurements that Fe diffusion was about 2 orders of magnitude smaller than N, even though the structural relaxation times for Fe and N were almost identical. This is an important result, indicating that the relaxation time of diffusion is basically driven by the relaxation of the structure itself. (C) 2008 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
