Definitions

  • the alternating layers are electrically conducting layers and insulating (barrier) layers.
  • the surface structure of the substrates needs not be crystalline. Preferably, it has a crystallographic match to the layers deposited onto the substrate. This crystallographic match leads to a good adhesion of the layers deposited on the substrate.
