Rare-earth/iron multilayered thin films were magnetron sputtered to investigate the thickness-dependent transition from amorphous iron to polycrystalline body-centred-cubic iron. To characterize this transition it is necessary to get information about the average short-range order (SRO) in the multilayers. A unique technique for measuring this SRO is calculating pair distribution functions (PDFs) from reduced intensity functions by using high-energy electron diffraction in a 300 kV transmission electron microscope. With a maximum resolution in the PDFs of 0.024 nm, this method offers a high sensitivity for the investigation of the SRO. Due to the planar probing characteristics of the experiment, one gets structure. information on interfaces rather than from the bulk structure. A further advantage of this method is that no specimen preparation is necessary. Therefore preparation artefacts can be excluded.
