“…[7,8] Coatings with a multilayered structure can be harder and tougher than homogeneous coatings of the same materials. [9,10] Since the layered structure obstructs dislocation glide and crack propagation, [11,12] toughening by a multilayered architecture can be attributed to the effects of interfaces on dissipating crack energy and deflecting cracks. [13] According to the strengthening mechanism of nanocomposite coatings and multilayers, a coating with a multilayered nanocomposite structure should possess great potential in surface modification.…”

A Ti-BN complex cathode is made from Ti and h-BN powders by the powder metallurgy technology, and TiBN coating is obtained by plasma immersion ion implantation and deposition with this Ti-BN composite cathode. The TiBN coating shows a self-forming multilayered nanocomposite structure while with relative uniform elemental distributions. High resolution transmission electron microscopy images reveal that the multilayered structure is derived from different grain sizes in the nanocomposite. Due to the existence of h-BN phase, the friction coefficient of the coating is about 0.25.
