Popis: The microstructural evolution of Cu/Mo nanomultilayers upon annealing was investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The isothermal annealing process in the temperature ranges of 300–850°C was conducted to understand the thermal behavior of the sample and follow the transformation into a nanocomposite. Annealing at 600°C led to the initiation of grain grooving in the investigated nanomultilayer, and it degraded into a spheroidized nanocomposite structure at 800°C. The sample kept the as-deposited Cu {111}//Mo{110} fiber texture up to 850°C. The residual stress was investigated to explain microstructure changes. The activation energy of degradation kinetics of Cu/Mo nanomultilayers was determined to understand the rate-determining mechanism for the degradation of nanolaminate structures.
