Investigation of Charge Transfer and Degradation Features in Bilayer Zr-ZrO₂

摘要

The mechanism of charge transfer in bilayer system Zr-ZrO₂ and its conductivity in the initial state and after degradation were investigated. The anodization parameter was calculated, permitting to set the thickness of the oxide layer at anodic oxidation of zirconium. The degradation mechanism of layer systems Zr-ZrO₂, determined by increasing the oxide conductivity and accompanied by geometrical growth of oxide layer thickness, is outlined in this article.
