Abstract:
Ti-containing amorphous carbon nanocomposite coatings were deposited by using a modified closed field twin unbalanced magnetron sputtering system which is arc assisted and consists of two circles of targets, in an Ar ambient and at a substrate temperature of 100°C High-resolution transmission electron microscopy shows that the coatings contain Ti nanocrystals embedded in the amorphous carbon matrix. Mechanical and tribological properties of the coatings are influenced by the substrate bias voltage and Ti pair-target current. For coatings prepared at a bias of 100 V, the hardness increases from 12 GPa at a Ti-target current of 4 A to 27 GPa at 15 A. The coating at 4 A exhibits very low friction coefficient (∼0.07) and excellent tribological performance with a wear rate of about 1.4×10 -16 m 3 N -1 m -1 .
