Abstract(in English) We performed growth of bcc niobium (Nb) and aluminum (Al) thin films as well as bilayer Nb/Al using Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) technique on {100} Si substrates. We made Nb depositions using Xe plasma gases. We analyzed the surface topography of those films using reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). We found that the surface roughness of Nb films deposited by ECR is 4^~ 5times smaller than films deposited by magnetron sputtering systems, while Al very thin films on Nb show a remarkable match with Nb surfaces. This results in a good coverage of Nb base itself.
