hi, did you do dehydration at 200c for 5min before putting it in chamber? Ti should adhere very well generally. cheers jiang Ziling On 4/11/05, natacha smetanawrote: > I have a problem of adherence of my Ti/Au films on Si and glass substrates. > Both layer are grown by thermal evaporation (Joule effect) in a vaccum better > than 1e-6 mbar. The growth speed is around 0.2 A/s for Ti and 1 A/s for Au. > The thickness of my gold layer is 50 nm and between 5 and 10 nm for Ti.
