The Si-DLC coating was fabricated on AZ31 via a dual system consisting of a self-source
bias and a meshed plasma immersion deposition, where the incident ion energy can be …

In this paper, the DLC films were deposited on the AISI 304 stainless steel by unbalanced
magnetron sputtering technology. The tribological properties of DLC/SiC and DLC/Si 3 N 4 …

Power parameters are of importance to determine the microstructure and property of
coatings deposited by cathode plasma electrolytic deposition (CPED). In the present study …

The present paper reported a novel bipolar-pulse cathodic plasma electrolytic deposition
(BP-CPED) technique with a low current density. This newly developed CPED technique …

This study emphases the reduction of droplet defect in nozzle needle during the application
of Cr-DLC coating on the substrate. The coatings were carried out in the highly sophisticated …

At present, the research on cathode plasma electrolytic deposition (CPED) mainly focuses
on improving the coating properties, while the initial structure and formation mechanism of …

In this paper, Nano copper (Cu) particles with a core-shell structure and good spherical
shape were prepared by an innovative method called mass-produced nanoparticles …

CrN film shows obvious differences in hardness, elastic modulus, and thermal expansion
coefficient between film and substrate, suffering from poor adhesion and wear resistance …

The tribology and interfacial transformation of a diamond-like carbon film covering a silicon
substrate are investigated in this research. The results show that the graphitization process …

A serious issue in the preparation of Al2O3 coatings by cathode plasma electrolytic
deposition (CPED) is that the coatings have a porous structure, which is detrimental to their …
