Originální abstrakt

We have shown earlier, that an oxygen impurity content of more than0.4 at.p. (4000 ppm) strongly degrades the hardness of the nc-TiN/a-Si3N4 nanocomposites. Here we show that such impurities also hinder the phase segregation and formation of stable and strong nanostructure consisting of 3-4 nm size TiN nanocrystals "glued" together by about 1 monolayer thick interfacial Si3N4-like layer, thus apparently stabilizing the solid solution at high temperature of more 900C, as reported by other researchers. At the impurity content of only few hundred ppm, the segregation is completed, and a stable nanostructure formed at temperature less 550C. By decreasing the impurity content from 2000-3000 ppm down to about 1000 ppm in an industrial PVD coating equipment, the life time of cutting tools has been increased by a factor of 2.
