Effect of annealing treatment on the structure and properties of the nanograined TiN coatings produced by ultrasonic-based coating process

LaPO4:Eu3+, LaPO4:Ce3+, and LaPO4:Ce3+,Tb3+ nanocrystals: Oleic acid assisted solvothermal synthesis, characterization, and luminescent properties

“…Over the past decades, doping is a widely applied process in materials science which involves incorporating appropriate atoms or ions into host lattices to yield hybrid materials with desirable properties and functions [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Recently, a particular emphasis has been placed on the study of rare earth (RE) ions doped compounds due to their large variety of applications [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

Mono- and multiple TiN(/Ti) coating adhesion mechanism on a Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy

“…Tilbrook et al [4] reported micostructural effects on indentation failure mechanisms in TiN coatings by finite element simulations. Romankova et al [5] studied the effect of annealing treatment on the structure and properties of the nanograined TiN coatings produced by an ultrasonic coating process. With an increasing demand for industrial practice, further investigation of multilayer coatings in the feature of the improved wear resistance, hardness, and higher oxidation resistance with modulation of different phases has attracted much attention in the past few years [6][7][8].…”
