Al Related Materials Ta, Nb, Zr, Hf, Al Introduction to Titanium Thin Films Titanium (Ti) is a popular metal for use in thin film form due to its excellent mechanical, electrical and optical properties. Ti thin films find their applications in a wide range of fields including microelectronics, sensors, solar cells, and biomedical implants. Properties of Ti Thin Films High melting point (1668°C) Low density (4.5 g/cm3) Good mechanical strength and ductility High resistance to corrosion and oxidation Good adhesion to a wide range of substrates Comparison of Ti with other Metals Titanium thin films are known for their high strength-to-weight ratio, good biocompatibility, and resistance to corrosion, making them a preferred choice over other metals such as copper, aluminum, and nickel. Crystal Structure of Titanium Metal Titanium has a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) crystal str
