Interfacial Model and Characterization for Nanoscale ReB2/TaN Multilayers at Desired Modulation Period and Ratios: First-Principles Calculations and Experimental Investigations

The interfacial structure of ReB2/TaN multilayers at varied modulation periods (Λ) and modulation ratios (tReB2:tTaN) was investigated using key experiments combined with first-principles calculations. A maximum hardness of 38.7 GPa occurred at Λ = 10 nm and tReB2:tTaN = 1:1. T...
