Surface Energy and Work of Adhesion of Nitrogen-doped Titanium Oxide Films
Nitrogen-doped titanium oxide (TiO2-xNx) films were prepared by ion-assisted electron-beam evaporation,using rutile powder as source material. The films deposited with nitrogen ion bombardment at various nitrogen fractions (FN2),were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectra. Well-crystallized anatase TiO2 was deposited first without the nitrogen ion bombardment. With nitrogen ion bombardment under increasing FN2,the TiO2-xNx films were formed. The films are still in anatase phase but possessed substitutional nitrogen atoms and chemisorbed molecular N2. Wettability and surface energy of the TiO2-xNx films were also investigated. The TiO2-XNX films deposited at FN2=0.43 exhibited the lowest contact angle and ihe largest polar component of the surface energy. Nitrogen doped into substitutional sites of TiO2 has proven to be indispensable for improved hemocompatibility,as assessed by work of adhesion calculations and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy. We also suggest that TiO2-xNx film deposited at FN2=0.43 can provide an excellent hemocompatible surface from the estimated work of adhesion between the TiO2-xNx films and human blood.
