  AbstractTitanium nitrides have good mechanical, tribological, electrical, biomedical, and optical properties; therefore, they are used to harden and protect cutting and sliding surfaces, as semiconductor devices, and as a nontoxic exterior for biomedical applications. The dependence of the mechanical and electrical properties of titanium nitride thin films deposited on silicon substrates by direct-current reactive magnetron sputtering technique on argon gas flow (in the range of 8 to 20 sccm) was investigated. The crystallographic structure of the films was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), while surface morphology was studied using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Mechanical and electrical properties of these films were investigated by nanoindentation test and a four-point probe instrument, respectively. The XRD patterns showed titanium nitride (TiN) formation with a face-centered cubic structure for all samples. It was also observed that (111) crystallographic direction was the preferred orientation for TiN thin films which became more pronounced with increasing argon gas flow. The AFM images showed a granular structure for TiN layers. The hardness, crystallite/grain size (obtained from XRD and AFM), and surface roughness increased with the flow of argon gas, while elastic modulus and dislocation density in the films decreased. The study on electrical properties showed that the dependence of voltage with current for all samples was linear, and film resistivity was increased with argon gas flow. پرونده مقاله

  AbstractA 2.2-kJ Mather type plasma focus device charged at 18 kV was used to deposit titanium nitride on 304 type stainless steel substrates. The plasma focus device is fitted with solid titanium anode and operated with nitrogen as the filling gas. The process of deposition was done at room temperature, and samples were deposited at a constant distance and at different angles with respect to the anode axis. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) were employed to characterize crystalline structure, morphology, nanostructure, distribution, and elemental composition of deposited films, respectively. As the ion flux and energy of the ions change with angular position from the head of the anode (titanium), it is observed that these changes directly affect both surface morphology and the nanostructure of the films. XRD patterns show the growth of polycrystalline titanium nitride thin films of different phases. AFM and SEM images show that the grain size is affected by the energy of ions that reached the surface. Grain size, average roughness, and root mean square decreased by increasing the angle with respect to the anode axis. EDX mapping verifies the elemental distributions of titanium nitride on the surface. In this work we have shown the possibility of production of titanium nitride thin films of different phases, using a Mather type plasma focus system. پرونده مقاله

  In this research, the production of Fe-TiN and Fe-Ti(N,C) composite powders by mechanical alloying was investigated and evaluated. Ferrotitanium (containing 70%Ti), titanium and graphite were used as the raw materials. Initial mixtures were milled in different time durations under the pure nitrogen atmosphere with the pressure of 5atm. The results showed that when N2 pressure is 5 atm and milling time lasts 5 h, reaction starts and after 10 h, FeTi2 is completely converted to TiN. Also, the role of graphite as the active material of the reaction was investigated and it was found that it leads to the production of titanium carbonitride in the iron matrix. پرونده مقاله
