Abstract
A series of Ni- and/or Cu-containing coatings formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation on aluminum and titanium are examined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Binding energies of core electrons, elemental composition, chemical state of elements, and features of the structural organization of the surface and near-surface layers of the coatings are determined. A combination of the data collected indicates similar regularities of the composition and significant distinctions in the structure of the coatings formed. It is shown that the coatings formed on titanium are characterized by a considerably higher phosphorus concentration, and correspondingly, phosphates, unlike the coatings formed on aluminum, in which base metal and 3 d element (Ni or Cu) oxides are dominant. In both cases, Cu is mainly concentrated in the surface layers of the coatings whereas Ni is mainly concentrated in the near-surface layers.
