Crystal Structure Prediction of the Novel Cr<sub>2</sub>SiN<sub>4</sub> Compound via Global Optimization, Data Mining, and the PCAE Method
A number of studies have indicated that the implementation of Si in CrN can significantly improve its performance as a protective coating. As has been shown, the Cr-Si-N coating is comprised of two phases, where nanocrystalline CrN is embedded in a Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>...
