Abstract
The formation of Nb3Al by a solid-state reaction between Nb and Al is examined for both powder-metallurgy-processed wires and sputtered multilayer films. It is found that the diffusion of Al into the Nb layer plays an important role in the formation of Nb3 Al. However, an extremely thin Nb film is not necessarily needed for the solid-state reaction, as indicated by the results obtained with multilayered films. A discussion is presented of the relationship of the Nb layer thickness and the areal reduction ratio to Nb3Al formation in the powder-metallurgy process
