Description
NiTi exhibits super-elastic as well as shape-memory properties, which results in a large potential application field in biomedical technology. Using oxygen ion implantation at elevated temperatures, it is possible to improve the biocompatibility. Resonant Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RRBS) is used to investigate the oxygen depth profile obtained after oxygen plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) at 25 kV and 400-600 deg. C. At all temperatures, a layered structure consisting of TiO2/Ni3Ti/NiTi was found with sharp interfaces while no discernible content of oxygen inside Ni3Ti or nickel in TiO2 was found. These data are compatible with a titanium diffusion from the bulk towards the implanted oxygen
