Charge-state equilibration of ions moving in matter occurs within femtoseconds and when penetrating nanometer depths. Ion-beam mixing in bilayers, tens of nm thick, should therefore not depend on the charge state of the projectiles. As the experimental situation for metal/silicon bilayers irradiated
