Abstract
The hardness and the Young's modulus of the layers have been determined by nanoindentation. Whereas the majority of coatings exhibits hardness around 20Â GPa or lower, maximum hardness of 28Â GPa and Young's modulus of 420Â GPa are observed in a certain compositional range, in which coatings also distinguish by good thermal stability. Their composition has been analysed by using optical glow discharge emission spectroscopy (GD-OES) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS).
