Hard and superhard Zr-Ni-N nanocomposite films

Original language description

This article reports on the relationship between the structure and mechanical properties of Zr-Ni-N nanocomposite films prepared by d.c.-reactive magnetron sputtering of a ZrNi (90/10 at.%) alloyed target in a mixture of Ar and N2 onto steel substrates using a planar round unbalanced magnetron with a diameter of 100 mm. The Zr-Ni-N nanocomposite films represent a new material of the type nc-MeN/metal composed of a hard nc-ZrN phase and a soft Ni phase, where nc- denotes the nanocrystalline phase of zirconium nitride. It was found that (i) there is a strong correlation between the structure of the film, the content of Ni in the nanocomposite and the film properties; (ii) Zr-Ni-N films can form superhard films with a high hardness up to 57 GPa; and (iii)Zr-Ni-N films with the same hardness (H>40 GPa) can exhibit different structures and strongly differ in the size of nc-ZrNx grains of which they are composed.
