title = "Nanocomposite coatings with enhanced hardness",
abstract = "The article reviews the present state of the art in the field of hard and superhard nanocomposite coatings. In the first part, mechanisms of enhanced hardness H are briefly explained. Main attention is devoted to the film nanostructure and its effect of mechanical properties of hard nanocomposite films. Second part analyses the high-temperature behavior of hard nanocomposite films and reports on a new family of hard nanocomposites with oxidation resistance exceeding 1000°C. Third part is devoted to the toughness of hard films. At the end, trends of the next development are outlined.",
