Ion mixing was studied in polycrystalline Nb/V and single-crystal Mo/V superlattices and in bilayers of the same materials. Systematic variation in the modulation wavelength, {Lambda}, revealed a factor of three decrease in mixing efficiency at small {Lambda} for Nb/V. The decrease appears to coincide with a structural transition in which the Nb/V superlattices become coherent. The results are consistent with a diffusion-induced grain boundary migration interpretation of mixing during irradiation.
