Toughening mechanisms in V-Si-N coatings

Toughening mechanisms in V-Si-N coatings

Microstructural evolution and deformation mechanisms of magnetron sputtered V-Si-N coatings with various Si contents are investigated by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and ab initio calculations. A small amount of Si atoms was dissolved into the cubic VN lattice, lo...
