چکیده

The macroparticle content of titanium films deposited using a steered vacuum cathodic arc has been investigated. It has been found that the macroparticle number decreases with increasing steering magnetic field strength, and experimental results are found to be consistent with the model in which the number and mass of macroparticles arising from a cathode spot are proportional to the cathode spot volume.

Imaging the separation of cathodic arc plasma and macroparticles in curved magnetic filters

Cathodic vacuum arc plasmas can be used to produce well adherent, dense, highquality films and coatings provided macroparticles are removed from the plasma. Both plasma and macroparticles are produced at cathode spots, and in most cases both can easily be observed because they emit light. The nature of this light emission is briefly discussed. Using open, curved solenoids as magnetic filters, o...

Die Materials Modulated Pulsed Power Magnetron Sputtering for Die Surface Engineering

The utility of hard tribological coatings based on transition nitrides (e.g. CrN, TiAlN, CrAlN, etc.) as protective layers on various forming tools (e.g. die and its components used in high pressure die casting) has led to improvements in increased die life, reduced machine down time, and improved product quality. Moreover, recent advances in the coating design made it possible to obtain nanosc...

Characterization of TiN, CrN and (Ti, Cr) N Coatings Deposited by Cathodic ARC Evaporation

In this investigation PVD Ti-Cr)N coatings were deposited on hardened and tempered tool steel substrates using reactive arc evaporation. Physical and mechanical properties of coatings such as roughness, thickness, phase composition, hardness and modulus young and coefficient friction were evaluated. Phase compositions were studies by X-ray diffraction method. The surface microstructure and morp...

Super–conducting niobium films produced by means of UHV arc

The paper shows that high–quality super-conducting Nb films can be deposited by means of arc discharges under ultra–high vacuum conditions. The critical temperature Tc of Nb–films obtained with a planar cathodic arc Ultra High Vacuum (UHV) system, is very close to that of pure bulk niobium Tc = 9.26 K and the transition to super–conducting state is very narrow. The films have higher Residual Re...

Comparison of Properties of Ti/TiN/TiCN/TiAlN Film Deposited by Cathodic Arc Physical Vapor and Plasma-assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition on Custom 450 Steel Substrates

This study investigated the effects of deposition techniques on the microstructural and tribological properties of Ti/TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multilayer coatings onto a Custom 450 steel substrate. The coatings were produced using cathodic arc physical vapor deposition (CAPVD) and plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD). The microstructural of the coatings was evaluated using (SEM), and phase f...
