Annotation | As a result of deposition of nanostructured multicomponent (TiZrAlYNb)N and (TiZrHfVNbTa)N nit-ride coatings, a phase with FCC lattice and crystallite sizes from 7 nm to 17-20 nm, respectively, is formed. Compressive stresses are developed, with values of – 2.97 GPa and – 3.86 GPa for 6-elements nitrides, and – 0.25 GPa and – 3.14 GPa for 5-elements coatings. Dependence of the stress change on the nitride concentration in the coatings is found, and possible reasons of the observed correlation are discussed. Ion implantation of Au-leads to disorder of the coatings structure in the implanted layer, decrease of nanocrystallite sizes, and, as a result, increase of nanohardness of the coatings to 39 GPa. |
