Another consequence of the partial hetero-epitaxy at the Ti/Al2O3 interface and the
re-crystallization of titanium was the nano-size of the Ti grains at the surface of the
substrate.
As the formation of the partial hetero-epitaxy and the formation of the re-crystallized
titanium decline with increasing distance from the Ti/Al2O3 interface, a gradient of
increasing grain size was observed in the CGS Ti.
