Crystal structures of as-sputtered Ti/Al multilayers are studied with special emphasis on the formation of f.c.c.-Ti and the effect of coherency strains on phase stability. The results are rationalized on the basis of a recently proposed thermodynamic model for phase stability in multilayers. In this paper, the thermodynamic model is modified to account for the effect of coherency strains on the phase stability. A new phase stability diagram is proposed for Ti/Al multilayers.
