Abstract

The influence of the short-range order of amorphous nickel-phosphorus alloy on the IR absorption is studied. The relation between the optical properties and the microstructure of amorphous nickel-phosphorus alloys obtained by various technological methods is considered. It is shown that a coating of amorphous Ni−P alloy obtained by electrolytic deposition has the most homogeneous structure; this permits the use of such coatings as protective layers for optical and magnetic memory disks. Optical methods permitting the estimation of the dimensions of the microcrystalline regions in an amorphous matrix are outlined.
