  • Abstract
    We incorporated the multi-arc discharge in a reactive magnetron sputtering system to produce alternating CNx/TiN coatings. X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS) measurements showed that the carbon nitride was formed and the N content was between 12 and 40 at.% in the CNx films. The microstructure of the films was studied by atomic microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron diffraction (TED). There were β-C3N4 and c-C3N4 phases in the films. Under appropriate deposition conditions, alternating CNx/TiN coatings with high hardness, low friction coefficient and good adhesion were obtained on high-speed tool steel (HSS) substrates.
