The adhesion properties of the TiAl/TiO2 interface are estimated in dependence on interfacial layer composition and contact configuration using the projector augmented wave method. It is shown that a higher value of the work of separation is obtained at the interface between the Ti-terminated TiAl(110) surface and the TiO2(110)O one than at that with the Al-terminated alloy. An analysis of structural and electronic factors dominating the chemical bonding at the interfaces is carried out. It is shown that low bond densities are responsible for low adhesion at both considered interfaces, which may affect the spallation of oxide scale from the TiAl matrix.

We perform dynamical simulations of dry oxidation and NO annealing of the SiO2/4H-SiC C-face interface at 1500K using first-principles molecular dynamics based on plane waves, supercells, and the projector-augmented wave method. The slab model is used for the simulation. In the dry oxidation simulation, O atoms oxidize not only the C atoms at the SiC interface but also second-atomic-layer Si atoms in the SiC layer. Bilayer oxidation occurs in the oxidation process. The formation of C clusters that grow in the c-axis direction is observed. In the simulation of NO annealing, N atoms passivate interface C atoms. The density of N atoms saturates, then N atoms desorb as N2 molecules. CN molecules are formed by the abstraction of C atoms by the N atoms, and the CN molecules readily react at the interface. The formation of a Si3N structure is also observed.

We perform a dynamical simulation of the SiO2/4H-SiC C-face interface oxidation process at 2500K using first-principles molecular dynamics based on plane waves, supercells, and the projector-augmented wave method. The slab model is used for the simulation. Oxygen molecules are dissociated in the SiO2 layers or by Si atoms at the SiO2 interface. The O atoms of the O2 molecule oxidize the C atoms at the SiC interface and form Si-C-O or CO2-C complexes. COx (x=1 or 2) molecules are desorbed from these complexes by thermal motion. COx molecules diffuse in the SiO2 layers when they do not react with dangling bonds. COx molecule formed during C-face oxidation more easily diffuse than those formed during Si-face oxidation in the interface region.

NiTi shape memory alloy is considered to be the most important shape memory alloys for its salient superelasticity and shape memory effect,which are displayed in martensitic transformations.In this paper, first-principles plane-wave method is utilized to systemically investigate the geometrical and electronic structures of NiTi (100) surface.Calculated the adsorption of oxygen atoms on the Ti/ NITI different location .The formation energy, Millikan population analysis results show that the Oxygen atoms easy to be adsorbed on the surface of Ti end surface,formation of TiO2.
