Plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) is a very attractive method for the surface treatment of titanium hard tissue replacements such as hip joints and enhancement of the mechanical, chemical and biological properties of titanium. It has been considered as an alternative to form protective and hard oxide films on titanium and titanium-based implants. In this study, titanium oxide (TiO2) thin films were formed on titanium using PIII, which produces films with adhesion superior to those prepared with conventional techniques. The films were analysed by atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and pull test.

This work presents the characterization of birefringent properties of titanium-oxide thin films using spectrophotometry and double-cavity Fabry-Perot structures. All films were deposited by DC sputtering over tilted substrates and the birefringence was characterized as a function of the deposition angle by the numerical difference between the refractive indexes for s- and p-polarized light beams. As a result, the highest value of birefringence (0.03) was obtained for samples tilted at 21º (having the normal axis as reference). A polarizing narrow-band Fabry-Perot filter centered at 400 and 700nm was designed by means of numerical simulations of the multilayer structures using a MATLAB© toolbox to solve the classical optical equations. Using this designed double-cavity Fabry-Perot structure [Ag(40nm) / TiO2(160nm) / Ag(40nm) / TiO2(164nm) / Ag(40nm)], transmittance ratios (Tp/Ts) for p- and s-polarized light beams resulted 1.70 at a wavelength of 699nm and 1.36 at another wavelength of 393nm (centers of the two narrow-band peaks), which corroborated the birefringent characteristics of the nearly-stoichiometric titania (TiO2) thin films.
