Abstract

Superlattices between ceramic materials, such as tungsten carbide, and transition metals have been synthesized for the first time. The growth and structure of these superlattices were investigated by low angle X-ray diffraction and TEM lattice imaging and microdiffraction. The data show that the low temperature process of forming these two dimensional composites leads to unique crystal structures and morphology in the nanoscale range.
