Surface nanomechanical behavior of ZrN and ZrCN films deposited on NiTi shape memory alloy by magnetron sputtering.

چکیده
Surface nanomechanical behavior under nanoindentation of ZrN and ZrCN film on NiTi substrate was studied. The surface hardness and modulus of the films increase initially with larger nanoindentation depths and then reach their maximum values. Afterwards, they diminish gradually and finally reaching plateau values which are the composite modulus and composite hardness derived from the ZrN/ZrCN film and NiTi substrate. They are higher than those of electropolished NiTi SMA due to the properties of ZrN and ZrCN. In comparison, the surface nanomechanical properties of electropolished NiTi exhibit a different change with depths.

In this study, NiTi thin films were deposited on the glass and NaCl substrates by means of magnetron sputtering method. The influence of aging temperature, over the range 300-500 oC, on phase transformation and mechanical properties of the sputtered NiTi thin films were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and nano-indentation assay, respectively. The DSC curves showed that the ag...

1.5mm–Ni55Mn23Ga22 ferromagnetic thin films were deposited onto silicon substrates and silicon single beam cantilever using radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. As-deposited sample and heat-treated thin films were studied on their silicon substrates and peeled off to determine the influence of the stress. Post-heat treatment process allows at the films to achieve the shape memory effect (SME)....
متن کاملMicrostructure Evolution of On-substrate NiTi Shape Memory Alloy Thin Films
When deposited at room temperature, sputtered NiTi thin films are amorphous and need to be crystallized before they can be used as a functional material. We present the results of an annealing study on substrate-constrained NiTi shape memory thin films. Amorphous films of a NiTi shape memory alloy were deposited by UHV sputtering. Films of thickness 1.0 μm were grown on (100) Si wafers both wit...
