Abstract
EXAFS measurements have been made on a number of Cu-Hf multilayers with modulation wavelengths of 1/2 to 20 close-packed monolayers. Clear indications are found for an amorphous interfacial compound. Fitting of the EXAFS spectra indicate that the interfacial regions are about 8-10 layers thick, and contain nearly equal numbers of layers of Hf and Cu. The results are compared to x-ray diffraction studies of the same samples.
