Characterization of ANTACON diamond-like carbon and ta-C coatings with low internal stresses by nanoindentation
By combining the laser deposition process with the laser tempering process, ANTACON GmbH from Mittweida (DE) has succeeded in producing extremely hard DLC coatings with low internal stresses. With the help of Anton Paar's nanoindentation test devices, the mechanical properties of these coatings could be quantitatively analyzed and indentation hardness up to 61GPa were measured.
