The reaction at the interfacial region of Cu/SiO 2 and Fe/SiO 2 heated in the high vacuum of an ESCA spectrometer has been studied. Copper spread slightly into SiO 2 at 500–800°C in the metallic oxidation state. Cupric oxide formed on SiO 2 changed to cuprous oxide or cuprous oxide plus copper metal and slightly diffused into the SiO 2 by heating. Iron began to react with SiO 2 at about 600°C and migrated into SiO 2 in the ferrous oxidation state. This reaction was stimulated over 800°C and may be promoted by the presence of a small amount of oxygen on the iron surface.
