We present result to support our hypothesis that the reflection of the primary beam during ion-beam sputtering of niobium films plays a significant role in determining final film properties, especially in the case of ion-beam sputtering. The film properties are afected by both the noble gas incorporation in and noble-gas bombardment of the growing film. (AIP)
