Due to its properties, niobium-titanium alloy is widely used to manufacture the flanges of superconducting niobium accelerating cavities. The material hardness is compliant to provide UHV-tight connections with aluminum gaskets or spring-type gaskets (Helicoflex). And the alloy can be directly welded to the niobium. The paper will present the surface analysis made on NbTi samples after the chemical treatment and on a Nb / NbTi weld. | ||
