摘要
Three kinds of Ti-rich Ti-Ni-Cu thin films (Ti51.9Ni41.Cu-6(6.5), Ti51.6Ni36.8Cu11.6, Ti51.5Ni33.1Cu15.4) and three kinds of (Ni, Cu)-rich Ti-Ni-Cu thin films (Ti48.9Ni44.9Cu6.2, Ti48.5Ni40.0Cu11.5, Ti48.6Ni35.9Cu15.5), numbers indicate at.%, were prepared by sputtering and annealed at 773, 873 and 973 K for 1 h. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the Ti-rich thin films contain Ti2Ni and Ti2Cu phases, while the (Ni, Cu)-rich thin films contain a TiNiCu phase. The B2 -> B19' martensitic transformation occurred below 10 at.% Cu, while the B2 -> B19 martensitic transformation occurred above 10at.% Cu. The transformation temperature increased with increasing Cu content and annealing temperature. The temperature hystereses were small compared with those of Ti-Ni binary alloy thin films. The maximum recoverable strain decreases with increasing annealing temperature. It also decreases with increasing Cu content when the Cu content is more than 10 at.%. The critical stress for inducing plastic deformation increases with decreasing annealing temperature and increasing Cu content. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
