The Effect of Deposition Parameters on the Structure and Mechanical Properties of Chromium Oxide Coatings Deposited by Reactive Magnetron Sputtering

Appropriate conditions for depositing hard Cr2O3 coatings by reactive sputtering techniques have yet to be defined. To fill this gap, the effect of principal deposition parameters, including deposition pressure, temperature, Cr-target voltage, and Ar/O2 ratio, on both the structure and mechanical pr...
