The production of high quality powder metallurgical NiTi alloys with elevated phase transformation temperatures is challenging. During processing, an unavoidable pickup of impurity elements (especially oxygen and carbon) results in a decrease of phase transition temperatures and in the formation of
A novel approach in determining the transition temperatures of thin films of NiTi shape memory alloys was investigated and compared with conventional techniques. The technique is based on micro-thermal analysis utilising a scanning thermal microscope (SThM). This method has the potential to allow th
