This study focuses on effects of layered design method on the corrosion resistance of the
coatings. The different corrosion behaviors could be extracted from the microstructure and …

Abstract Ti (Titanium), TiN (Titanium Nitride) and Ti/TiN bilayers were deposited on stainless
steel (AISI 316L) using unbalanced magnetron sputtering process. Multilayered coatings …

Since the introduction of the term “nanolaminate” in the mid-1990s, considerable research
activities on metallic/ceramic nanolaminates (MCN) have been conducted. Incorporating …

The promising mechanical, physical and chemical properties of nano-scale metal/ceramic
multilayers (MCMs) are of high interest for extreme environment applications. Understanding …

Binary systems (layers) and multicomponent layers with bilayer thicknesses varying from
microns to a few nanometers are considered. A strong dependence of the microstructure …

Characteristic porous microstructure causes poor wear resistances of sputtered transition
metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) films that have important applications in space technology …

This paper reports the results of the influence of bilayer period (Λ) and total thickness (f) on
the corrosion resistance of magnetron-sputtered CrN/Cr multilayers. Corrosion tests were …

Abstract Synthesis of Ti/TiN hard coatings on different substrates has been the subject of
several researchers in the last decades; however, a more compressive perspective is …

The lubrication of pure MoS 2 coating for the application in air environment has been
commonly limited owing to its loose structure, low hardness, and high humidity sensitivity. To …

Cr/CrN nano-multilayers were grown on H13 steel and silicon (100), having different periods
(Λ), at room temperature using the unbalanced magnetron sputtering technique by varying …
