Abstract
Abstract The properties of a metal surface can be enhanced by implantation with noble gas ions. Implantation has its effect on the stress state of the material. In this work, SS304 stainless steel is implanted with Ne+ SS304 bears the property of being easily transformable from the face centered cubic (bcc) phase to the body centered cubic (bcc) phase. Before the implantation the SS304 samples were stress free and completely of the fcc phase, after the implantation bcc phase material is present and the implanted layer is in a compressive stress state. By using a different approach towards glancing angle X-ray diffraction we were able to measure a depth profile of the bcc material and to measure the stresses in the 0.1 μm thick implanted layer.
