Vacancy-concentration-dependent thermal stability of fcc-(Ti,Al)Nx predicted via chemical-environment-sensitive diffusion activation energies
Ganesh Kumar Nayak, David Holec, Jochen M. Schneider
Thermal decomposition of metastable fcc-(Ti,Al)Nx limits the lifetime of coated components. While energetic decomposition aspects can be modelled reliably, the inherent variability…
