The present work aims at a comprehensive description of such a technique. The examples of TiAl multi-layer alloy coatings and (Ti, M) N composition-gradient films were taken (M representing Zr, Nb etc.) for the purpose of explaining the working process and evaluating practical effects. The results show that this technique has the advantages of easy manipulation, rapid deposition, and wide composition range.展开更多

Differentproportions of Zr were added to pseudo-binary alloy IQC_(80)DQC_(20) (mass fraction in %);Structural evolution in these alloys was discussed. An amorphous alloy composition was found in thissystem and a melt-spinning amorphous alloy was produced in this composition. Through DSC analysis,the amorphous alloy exhibits high glass forming ability comparable to that of the InoueZr_(65)Al_(7.5)Cu_(17.5)Ni_(10) amorphous alloy.展开更多
