• Nitinol is a shape memory alloy
• Manufactured as stents
• Tested– Mechanically polished– Mechanically polished
in solution

• Explanted stents– Thick oxide layer– Thin oxide layer
What causes a thin layer to be more biocompatible?

• Biocompatibility is crucial
• Titanium has a higher affinity for oxygen than nickel.
• Nickel can leak into the body--BAD NEWS!

x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
• Why?– Tunability of incident
energy allows us to probe certain depths.
– Great for surface analysis ~ few nanometers

• Sign of slope tells us which species lies above• Magnitude tells us an approximate separation

conclusion: species associated with signal three is above both two and one; species one and two appear to be coming from the same depth

summary…
• By varying angle we were able to differentiate the depths of various species
• Mechanically polished sample in PBS solution has a slightly thicker oxide layer
• Phosphorus layer near the surface suggests no nickel leaking
• Implies biocompatibility
