摘要 | The Ti-Al-Si-N coatings were synthesized by multi-plasma immersion ion implantation and deposition (MPIIID). The doping of Si and Al on the interface structures and mechanical property of the composite coatings were investigated. The as-deposited Ti-Al-Si-N coatings were characterized with X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscope and mechanical probes. The results show that the Si-doping strongly affects the micro- and phase structures of the super-hard Ti-Al-Si-N coatings, with TiAlN nano-grains embedded in Si3N4 layer. For example, as the Si-content increased, the TiAlN grain-size decreased and the Si3N4 layer thickened. At a low Si-content, the Si3N4 layer, thinner than 1 nm, crystallized and formed a coherent interface with the TiAlN grains, the hardness of the Ti-Al-Si-N coatings was found to be 40 GPa; but the hardness dropped down to 29 GPa because a 2 nm thick amorphous Si3N4 layer formed at a higher Si-content. ©, 2015, Science Press.
