Abstract

The effects of varying carbon ions (C+) implantation energies on Aluminum Carbide (Al4C3) precipitation, surface morphology and electrochemical corrosion resistance of aluminum (Al) were evaluated. The Al samples were implanted with C+ of different energies of 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 MeV at a constant dose of 1
