Abstract

Multilayer (Mg/ZrO₂)₅₂ nanostructures differing from each other in the thickness of the Mg layers and the same thickness of the ZrO₂ layers were obtained by ion-beam sputtering of two targets in an argon. The thickness of one bilayer (Mg + ZrO₂) varies from 3.6 to 8.5 nm. It was found that the use of zirconium dioxide prevented the oxidation of the magnesium phase. The presence of an electric percolation threshold was found when the morphology of magnesium layers changes (transition from discrete to continuous) as a result of an increase in the bilayer thickness. A change of the electrotransport mechanism in the (Mg/ZrO₂)₅₂ multilayer nanostructures upon passing through the percolation threshold has been established.
