The results of a study of the morphology of the nanostructured by ion implantation germanium films are presented. The film samples were grown using the magnetron sputtering method in an ultrahigh vacuum and then were irradiated with Ge+ ions of 40 keV energy in the fluence range of (1.8–8)×10(16) ion/cm2. Using the scanning electron microscopy it was found that in the implanted germanium volume the vacancy complexes with a diameter of 50–150 nm gradually form and come to the surface upon reaching a certain implantation fluence, forming a developed relief of the irradiated films.

Abstract Objectives Dental implant is a revolution in dentistry; some shortages are still a focus of research. This study use long duration of radiofrequency (RF)–magnetron sputtering to coat titanium (Ti) implant with hydroxyapatite (HA) to obtain a uniform, strongly adhered in a few micrometers in thickness. Materials and Methods Two types of substrates: discs and root form cylinders were prepared using a grade 1 commercially pure (CP) Ti rod. A RF–magnetron sputtering device was used to coat specimens with HA. Magnetron sputtering was set at 150 W for 22 hours at 100°C under continuous argon gas flow and substrate rotation at 10 rpm. Coat properties were evaluated via field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, atomic force microscopy, and Vickers hardness (VH). Student’s t-test was used. Results All FESEM images showed a homogeneous, continuous, and crack-free HA coat with a rough surface. EDX analysis revealed inclusion of HA particles within the substrate surface in a calcium (Ca)/phosphorus (P) ratio (16.58/11.31) close to that of HA. Elemental and EDX analyses showed Ca, Ti, P, and oxygen within Ti. The FESEM views at a cross-section of the substrate showed an average of 7 µm coat thickness. Moreover, these images revealed a dense, compact, and uniform continuous adhesion between the coat layer and the substrate. Roughness result indicated highly significant difference between uncoated Ti and HA coat (p-value < 0.05). A significant improvement in the VH value was observed when coat hardness was compared with the Ti substrate hardness (p-value < 0.05). Conclusion Prolonged magnetron sputtering successfully coat Ti dental implants with HA in micrometers thickness which is well adhered essentially in excellent osseointegration.

Aiming to improve the nanotribological response of Si-based materials we implanted silicon wafers with different fluences of iron ions (up to 2x1017 cm-2). Implantation was followed by annealing treatments at temperatures from 550°C to 1000°C. The implanted surfaces were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and wettability tests. Then, samples were submitted to AFM-based nanowear tests. We observe an increase of both hidrophobicity and and wear resistance of the implanted silicon, indicating that ion implantation of Si can be a route to be deeper explored in what concerns tribomechanical improvement of Si.

In order to research the adhesion of sputtering protective coating of Gd. Gd substrates was coated with 1Cr18Ni9Ti by means of DC magnetron sputtering technology. The characteristics of the film were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), EDS, SPM and the adhesions of film was tested by tension test. The results show that the films of 1Cr18Ni9Ti are distributed by means of islands when the sputtering was initiated and the grains are like thin fiber. After a few minutes, the films are smooth and perfect, the interferences between 1Cr18Ni9Ti and Gd join together strongly, and the largest strength of adhesion is 24.7MPa when the sputtering density is 966 w/cm2 and the sputtering time is 8 minutes.

AbstractConducting polypyrrole polymer films have been modified by ion implantation. The resulting cross linking leads to changes in resistivity and electrochemical behaviour. By ion implantation through masks or with a focused ion beam lateral structures can be produced which can be imaged by scanning electron microscopy and optical absorption. The implanted polypyrrole layers can be removed by electrochemical treatment while not implanted regions can be electroplated. Therefore in combination with electrochemical treatment three dimensional structures have been generated and were investigated by atomic force microscopy. In order to study structures in the submicrometer range implantation experiments with a focused ion beam were performed and the minimal line widths were investigated by scanning electron microscopy.

AbstractWe have investigated the fabrication of thin-film superconductors by Cu-ion implantation into initially Cu-deficient Y(BaF2)Cu thin films. The precursor films were co-evaporated on SrTiO3 substrates, and subsequently implanted to various doses with 400 keV 63Cu2+. Implantations were preformed at both LN2 temperature and at 380°C. The films were post-annealed in oxygen, and characterized as a function of dose by four-point probe analysis, X-ray diffraction, ion-beam backscattering and channeling, and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that a significant improvement in film quality could be achieved by heating the films to 380°C during the implantation. The best films became fully superconducting at 60–70 K, and exhibited good metallic R vs. T. behavior in the normal state.

Abstract We investigated the chemical, physical, and tribological properties of nanolubricants consisting of epoxidized sunflower oil with Cu nanoparticles as additive. These latter are produced by magnetron sputtering at distinct current levels in the deposition, to improve the development of nanolubricants by enhancing the nanoparticles dispersion. The nanolubricants are here characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, zeta potential, ultraviolet–visible absorbance spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering, and scanning electron microscopy. After all, the tribological properties of the bionanolubricants are investigated using a high-frequency reciprocating rig equipment, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. Our results disclose the nanolubricants produced using the magnetron sputtering technique have excellent nanoparticle dispersion, as well as good tribological performance.

This paper reports two films, Ti/a-C and Ti/a-C:H, prepared on the Ti-6Al-4V alloys by magnetron sputtering in PVD and CVD process, respectively. The morphology and microstructure were characterized by Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Both films show nanosized Ti clusters incorporated into the amorphous carbon matrix. Mechanical properties of the films were investigated by nanoindentation and ball-on-disk tribo-test. Ti/a-C film shows a hardness as high as 40.9 GPa, while that of Ti/a-C:H is 12.2 GPa. Both films show reduced friction and high wear resistance.
