Abstract
Tantalum was ion implanted onto the TiC(0 0 1) surface at the energy of 2 MeV with the total doping amount of 1 × 1017 atoms/cm2. After thermal treatment at 1600 °C for 300 s, the atomic structure of Ta segregation on the TiC(001) surface was investigated by using time-of-flight impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (TOF-ICISS). It was found that the segregated Ta atoms were located on the Ti-site. Ta atoms segregated not only to the outermost layer but had a gradual concentration decrease inwards from the surface.
