The effect of H + ion implantation on surface morphology of the titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V, was studied, following H + ion implantation of 150 keV and 250 keV energy to fluence of 2⋅6 × 10 18 cm -2 and 2⋅5 × 10 19 cm -2 , respectively at ambient temperature. No detectable change was observed in surface features of either of the above specimen immediately after the implantation. However, vein like features (VLF) were observed to appear on the surface of the sample, implanted at 150 keV to a fluence of 2⋅6 × 10 18 cm -2 , following natural ageing at room temperature for 150 days. Subsequent annealing of the above naturally aged sample, at 423 K for 150 min under vacuum (10 -3 torr), led to development of a macroblister.In sharp contrast in the other sample, implanted by H + ions of higher energy (250 keV) to higher fluence of 2⋅5 × 10 19 cm -2 , neither there was any effect of natural ageing following the implantation nor that of subsequent annealing at 423 K and ageing on its surface morphology.
