The fabrication and growth mechanism of AlCrFeCoNiCu0.5 HEA thin films by substrate-biased cathodic arc deposition

Abstract AlCrFeCoNiCu0.5 thin films were fabricated by cathodic arc deposition under different substrate biases. Detailed characterization of the chemistry and structure of the film, from the substrate interface to the film surface, was achieved by combining high-resolution transmission electron mic...
