An interlayer does not need to be thick to have a substantial influence influence on the measured TBC. Surface termination with oxygen yields the same TBC contribution as when an Al2O3 layer of finite thickness is used. A metallic interlayer using nickel as thin as 1.5 nm yields the TBC values close to that of the Ni/C systemTime-Domain ThermoReflectanceDiamondAluminumSilvernickelAl2O3text::conference output::conference poster not in proceedings
