Description

The concentration of adsorbed oxygen on titanium foils and thin films deposited on stainless steel has been measured as a function of adsorbant temperature and surface carbon concentration using Auger electron spectroscopy. The oxygen gettering efficiency of foils is dependent on the surface carbon concentration, but saturated surfaces can be successfully regenerated by heating the foils to dissolve oxygen and carbon into the bulk. However, carbon diffuses into titanium films from heated steel substrates and poisons the titanium surface with respect to oxygen adsorption. (orig.)
