Abstract:Important properties of the coating/substrate combination like hardness, stress and, in particular, adhesion rely partly on the morphology and microstructure of the interface, which is often physically and chemically different from the substrate as well as from the coating.The aim of this work is to study the influence of the chemical state of the metal surface on the structure of the interface AI2O,/Ti6A14V, obtained by deposition via sputtering of the ceramic.For this purpose three different surface treatmen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
