Experimental Investigation on Mechanical Properties of TiAlN Thin Films Deposited by RF Magnetron Sputtering

The mechanical properties of TiAlN deposited on the steel are explained in this study. Thin films are deposited by RF magnetron sputtering on the steel substrates to improve the wear resistance and hardness of the samples. Due to their improved microstructure and nanograins, the nanofilms have impro...
