Solar selective absorbing coatings directly harvest solar energy in the form of heat. The
higher temperatures are required to drive higher power-cycle efficiencies in favor of lower …

Nanocermet is a promising candidate for solar thermal applications and can be
commercialized owing to its excellent photothermal conversion efficiencies, controllable …

The design of the appropriate material system for a given tribological application must be
guided by an accurate understanding of the degradation mechanisms and the surface …

In this study, the contact resistance (CR) and electrochemical properties of TiN, CrN and
TiAlN electron beam physical vapor deposition (EBPVD) coatings and their stainless steel …

Настоящая книга представляет собой подробное справочное руководство по основным
вакуумным плазмохимическим процессам в тонкопленочной технологии-реактивному …

Hard coatings with high hardness, high oxidation resistance and thermal stability are used
for economical machining. In this regard nanostructured (Cr, Al) N and nc-(Cr, Al) N/a-Si3N4 …

Thin films of M–X–N (M stands for early transition metal and X= Si, Ge, Sn) are studied as
protective coatings. To extend the knowledge about the formation of nanocomposite films …

Ternary Cr–Si–N coatings, in which Si was incorporated into CrN, were synthesized onto
steel substrates (SKD 11) using a hybrid system of arc ion plating (AIP) and sputtering …

In this study, the effects of the microstructural properties on the deformation and damage
mechanism of CrN/TiN multilayer coatings deposited on Custom 450 steel using the …

Nanocomposite CrSiN films with a Si content of 14 at.% were fabricated through reactive
direct current magnetron cosputtering. The Si content was determined based on the superior …
