Abstract

Abstract Ni-ion irradiated NiTi is nearly 50% harder, retains 85% recoverable deformation, and has reduced hysteresis. This work explores the feasibility of using ion beam modification to modulate the austenite to martensite phase transformation in NiTi, thereby achieving novel or localized properties in near-surface regions.
