title: Effects of ion bombardment on the environmental durability of silver coatings.
abstract: The effects of ion assisted deposition on the environmental durability of silver coatings have been examined. Coatings were bombarded with 300-eV argon ions during deposition. Results indicate a significant improvement in the resistance to moisture correlated with the level of ion bombardment.
