Summary: TiSiN thin films were deposited on 52100 steel and Al2024 substrates using magnetron sputtering. The Si atomic ratios within the film's structure varied with the Si target power. The study found that increasing the Si ratio led to an increase in hardness and thickness of the films, a decrease in surface roughness, and a lower wear rate.

Summary: Titanium carbide (TiC) thin films were deposited on a copper substrate using radio frequency magnetron sputtering with argon gas plasma. The effects of time and temperature at a constant RF power on the structural and tribological properties were investigated. The films exhibited crystal structures with preferential orientations of (111) and (200) planes. The lowest thin film roughness of 19.797 nm was observed at an RF power of 200 W, sputtering time of two hours, and temperature of 80 degrees C. FTIR spectra showed the formation of a Ti-C bond. Different samples had varying wear volumes, with the lowest being 5.1 x 10(-3) mm(3) and the highest being 9.3 x 10(-3) mm(3).

Summary: This paper studied the effects of substrate bias current (I-s) on the properties of TiN films deposited by plasma-enhanced magnetron sputtering. The results showed that as the bias current increased, the microstructure of the films became denser with an enhanced preferred growth orientation along TiN(111). When the current increased from 0.1 A to 1.5 A, the grain size of the films significantly decreased and the mechanical properties were greatly improved. However, further increase in current did not significantly affect the mechanical properties.

Summary: (Ti-0.5, Mg-0.5)N thin films were synthesized by reactive dc magnetron sputtering, exhibiting a rock-salt cubic structure and a LiTiO2-type superstructure. The films have an electrical resistivity of 150 mΩ*cm and a Seebeck coefficient of -25 μV/K. High temperature annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere leads to the formation of the cubic superstructure. Density functional theory calculations show a 0.07 eV direct bandgap for the LiTiO2-type TiMgN2 structure.

Summary: This study evaluates the corrosion and wetting properties of sputter deposited O-TiN coating on stainless steel, compared to polished SS-304. The results indicate that the O-TiN coating transforms the hydrophilic surface of SS-304 into a hydrophobic surface, promoting aqueous passivation. The coated sample exhibits greater corrosion resistance than SS-304, making it suitable for long-lasting and corrosion-resistant applications.

Summary: The influence of Mo content on the structural, tribo-logical, and mechanical properties of TiN films is investigated in this study. It is found that adding 18% Mo enhances the mechanical properties of TiMoN films, resulting in a high hardness of 28 GPa and lower friction coefficient compared to binary TiN films. The multi-phase strengthening and higher (H/E, H3/E2) values contribute to the improved mechanical properties and wear resistance of TiN films by alloying with Mo.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of the introduced TamOn-TiO2/TiO2/Ti multi-interlayer on the microstructure, adhesive, mechanical, and anti-corrosion properties of reactive sputtered tantalum oxide coatings. The inserted multiple interlayers reduce the residual stress in the coating, couple the mechanical performance between the layer and the substrate, and block the continuous growth of penetrating defects in a film with columnar structure. The results provide a workable approach for improving the properties of the tantalum oxide coating on Ti6Al4V alloy for medical applications.

Summary: In this study, three different anode microstructures were fabricated in micro-tubular solid oxide fuel cells (MT-SOFCs) by using different polymer binders. A superior anode substrate with graded pore distribution was obtained by utilizing a PESf/PEI blend material as the polymer binder. The maximum power density of the cell fabricated by PESf/PEI blend polymer binder reached 630 mW center dot cm-2 at 750 degrees C, which is much higher than those of PEI polymer binder and PESf polymer binder at the same temperature. The improved electrochemical performance can be attributed to the accelerated gas transportation in the anode.

Summary: The corrosion behavior of Fe-60 and Fe-83 ribbons in 0.6 M NaCl was studied. Fe-60 exhibited a local corrosion mode and formed a stable passivation film with higher corrosion resistance, while Fe-83 showed a combination of local and global corrosion modes and had lower corrosion resistance. Controlling the precipitation of nanocrystalline phases and increasing the POx content in the passivation film significantly improved the corrosion resistance of Fe-based glassy alloys.
