      Deposition and characterisation of TiAlBN coatings produced by direct electron-beam evaporation of Ti and Ti-Al-B-N material from a twin crucible source 

      Rebholz, Claus; Leyland, A.; Matthews, A. (1999)
      TiAlBN coatings were synthesised by evaporating Ti and hot isostatically pressed TiAl0.68B3.67N2.44 material from a twin crucible source in an Ar plasma at 450°C. A combination of optical emission spectroscopy and partial ...

      The effect of boron additions on the tribological behaviour of TiN coatings produced by electron-beam evaporative PVD 

      Rebholz, Claus; Leyland, A.; Larour, P.; Charitidis, C.; Logothetidis, S.; Matthews, A. (1999)
      TiN coatings containing small amounts of boron were synthesized by electron beam evaporating a Ti-B alloy material from a single crucible source into a plasma comprising Ar or an Ar/N2 mixture at a substrate temperature ...

      Electron spectroscopic studies of nanocomposite PVD TiAlBN coatings 

      Baker, M. A.; Rebholz, Claus; Leyland, A.; Matthews, A. (2002)
      A range of TiAlBN coatings have been deposited by electron beam evaporation and the optimised composition exhibits a 150% improvement over single phase TiAlN coatings in drilling tests. The coatings have been analysed by ...

      Tribological behavior of CrN and Al-Cr-N coatings 

      Demas, N. G.; Polycarpou, A. A.; Polychronopoulou, K.; Rebholz, Claus (Affiliation: Department of Mechanical Science and Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801, United StatesAffiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, 1678, Nicosia, CyprusCorrespondence Address: Demas, N. G.Department of Mechanical Science and Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801, United States, 2009)
      The tribological behavior of CrN and Al-Cr-N coatings prepared by twin electron-beam evaporation at 450°C was investigated. The composition, structure, mechanical and tribological properties of the coatings were determined ...
