| Abstract | We study the chemical nature of the bonding of an oxide layer to the parent metal. In order to disentangle chemical effects from strain/misfit, the Ti(10 (1) over bar0)/TiO2(100) interface has been chosen. We use the density functional pseudopotential method which gives good agreement with experiment for known properties of bulk and surface Ti and TiO2. Two geometries, a film-like model (with free surface in the structure) and a bulk-like model (with no free surface in the structure), are used to simulate the interface, in each case with different terminations of Ti and TiO2. For the single-oxygen interfaces, the interface energies obtained using these two models agree with each other; however, for the double-oxygen ones, the relative stability is quite different. The disturbance to the electronic structure is confined within a few atomic layers of the interface. The interfacial bonding is mainly ionic, and surprisingly, there is more charge transfer from Ti to 0 in the interface than in the bulk. In consequence, the Ti/TiO2 interface has stronger binding than the bulk of either material. This helps to explain why the oxide forms a stable, protective layer on Ti and Ti alloys. |
