Title Deposition of Diamond-Like Superhard Materials Author(s) Kulisch, Wilhelm A.M Publication Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1999. Description X, 196 p. 20 illus : online resource Abstract Note This book deals with the deposition of a certain class of materials, namely the diamond-like superhard materials, in the form of thin films. Starting from concepts used to improve the hardness of a material, it is shown that the intrinsic hardness is highest for materials with low bond lengths, high coordination numbers, and low ionicities. It is further shown that such diamond-like materials (e.g. diamond, cubic boron nitride, tetrahedrically bonded carbon nitride) are distinguished by a variety of other unique and extreme properties ISBN,Price 9783540491651 Keyword(s) 1.
