Enhancing mechanical properties of (HfMoNbZrTa)1-xNx films through multi-phase structures in substoichiometric compositions by Yiming Ruan, Jigang Xie, Lin He, Fugui Zhang, Jie Shi, Hengning Hu, Yun Chen, Rui Shu, Liuquan Yang, Hao Du

“…Hardness and wear rates both reached their optimal values at RN = 20–25%. The strengthening mechanism was elucidated through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which suggest that higher H of the substoichiometric film is mainly associated with the increased local lattice distortion and the formation of a multi-phase structure.…”
