Abstract
Ti and TiN layers implanted with Fe-57 ions were studied by conversion electron Mossbauer spectroscopy at 295 and 80 K. In as-implanted Ti s amples the local states of iron implants were assigned to alpha-Ti(Fe) and beta-Ti(Fe). In TiN, about 68% of iron implants replace Ti atoms forming Fe2N and nonstoichiometric Fe-N complexes. The remaining Fe io ns replace N atoms exhibiting alpha-Ti(Fe) and beta-Ti(Fe) states. The protective properties of the TiN cover layer are discussed in terms o f changes of the these states after subsequent annealing in air. (C) 1 995 American Institute of Physics.
