In order to increase the photodegradation efficiency of TiO2 layer, two methods were used in the process by forming mesopores to increase the specific surface area and by nitrogen doping to increase visible light absorption. Importantly, TiO2 formation, porosity architectures and nitrogen doping can be performed by implantation of He, O and N in one step. After implantation, annealing at 650 ℃ leads to a mixing phase of anatase with a little rutile in the implanted layer. By removing the near surface compact layer using argon ion sputtering, the meso-porous structure was exposed on surfaces. Nitrogen doping enlarges the photo-response region of visible light. Moreover, the nitrogen dose of 8×1015 ion/cm2 induces a stronger visible light absorption. The photodegradation of rhodamine B solution with visible light sources indicates that the mesopores on surfaces and nitrogen doping contribute to an apparent increase of photocatalysis efficiency.展开更多

The Ti foil serves as the supply of Ti atoms for growth of the TiO_2 nanowires, making the preparation straightforward. It also acts as a bottom electrode for the device. A top Al electrode was fabricated by e-beam evaporation process. The Al/TiO_2 nanowire networks/Ti device fabricated in this way displayed a highly repeatable and electroforming-free bipolar resistive behavior with retention for more than 10~4 s and an OFF/ON ratio of approximately 70. The switching mechanism of this Al/TiO_2 nanowire networks/Ti device is suggested to arise from the migration of oxygen vacancies under applied electric field. This provides a facile way to obtain metal oxide nanowire-based Re RAM device in the future.展开更多

The composition of the diffusion layer is B2/discontinuous α/α2 layer/necklace-shaped β+α’ layer, where the content of any element at a given point mainly depends on the distance of the point from the interface and the phase type at the point. The tensile strength of the joint is 894 MPa, which is almost the same as that of the Ti-22Al-25Nb base alloy. The fracture surfaces on both sides of the joint are composed of two main regions. One region displays a relatively flat surface and fractures along the bonding interface. The other is composed of a moderate number of irregularly-shaped cavities on the Ti-6Al-4V side and many irregularly-shaped bulges on the Ti-22Al-25Nb side. Both regions result from fracture along the boundaries between β+α’ layers and αp grains or from the transcrystalline fracture of αp grains.展开更多
