Bio-inspired AlSiCN/Ti hierarchical coatings with high toughness by efficient energy dissipation

Microstructure design in hard coatings achieves mechanical robustness, such as high hardness, good toughness, high adhesion, etc. In this study, bio-inspired AlSiCN/Ti hierarchical composite coating, which the structure is similar as the shell, and the AlSiCN single layer coating are produced. The r...
