Facilitating TiB<sub>2</sub> for Filtered Vacuum Cathodic Arc Evaporation
TiB<sub>2</sub> is well established as a superhard coating with a high melting point and a low coefficient of friction. The brittle nature of borides means they cannot be utilised with arc evaporation, which is commonly used for the synthesis of hard coatings as it provides a high deposi...
