We performed a study of the diffusion of the Ag atoms in polyethylene (LDPE and HDPE). Thin Ag layers were deposited using a diode-sputtering technique on polymer foils at room temperature. Simultaneous post-deposition annealing and plasma treatment were used to induce metal-polymer intermixing. Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS)and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) were used to determine the integral amount of metal, the metal chemical structure in the surface layer and the metal layer morphology changes. Ag thin films exhibit dramatic changes of the chemical composition and surface morphology after Ar plasma treatment. The metal mobility is strongly influenced by the temperature, which was close to the melting point of used polymers. Ag cluster diffusion should be expected in this case.
