Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering Advances in Thin Films Nanostructured Materials and Coatings Kartoniert (TB)

This book highlights the latest advances in chemical and physical methods for thin-film deposition and surface engineering including ion- and plasma-assisted processes focusing on explaining the synthesis processing-structure-properties relationship for a variety of thin-film systems. It covers topics such as advances in thin-film synthesis new thin-film materials: diamond-like films granular alloys high-entropy alloys oxynitrides and intermetallic compounds ultra-hard wear- and oxidation-resistant and multifunctional coatings superconducting magnetic semiconducting and dielectric films electrochemical and electroless depositions thin-film characterization and instrumentation and industrial applications.
