Abstract

This paper reports on the results of experimental investigations into the microstructure and the elemental and phase compositions of ion-alloyed nickel surface layers modified by high-intensity implantation of titanium ions. It is established that the implantation of titanium ions into nickel surface layers up to 1600 nm thick leads to the formation of intermetallic phases (namely, NiTi, Ni3Ti, and NiTi2), a solid solution of titanium in nickel, titanium oxides of different stoichiometries, and titanium carbide TiC. It is demonstrated that the phases formed in the ion-alloyed nickel surface layers have a nanocrystalline structure. The average size of the nanocrystal grains is equal to 40 nm.
