Abstract

- Development of Zr metallic films by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering is reported.
- Zr films revealed predominantly [0 0 1] texture.
- Hexagonal shaped crystallites seem to grow along the surface normal of the substrate for the films deposited at 773 K.
- Hardness of the films is in the range 6-10 GPa.
- The scratch test indicated the films deposited at higher substrate temperatures had excellent bonding with the substrate.
