Abstract
Hard silicon carbonitride coatings are prepared using Ar and Ar (10 vol.% He) laser plasma from hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) [(CH3)3Si]2NH and HMDS+benzene vapors. The coatings are characterized by infrared (IR), Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, transmission electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The obtained coatings are amorphous and uniform in composition and over the film thickness. The microhardness of coatings synthesized on steel from a HMDS+ benzene mixture increases from 12 GPa to 18 GPa provided that other parameters remain constant.
