TiOx thin films were fabricated by means of a reactive sputtering technique in an rf triode sputtering-deposition unit. The deposition rate was studied in detail. A ‘phase diagram’ of TiOx was determined. XPS study showed the formation of a Ti02 surface layer on TiOx thin films. Oxygen was removed by the Ar+ bombardment on Ti02 to yield Ti203.
