Summary:

Nanoindentation and nanoscratching experiments have been performed to assess the mechanical and tribological behavior of three thin film materials with potential application as wear resistant coatings for magnetic disk storage: (1) hydrogenated-carbon (CHx); (2) nitrogenated-carbon (CNx); and (3) boron suboxide (BOx). The hardness and elastic modulus were measured using nanoindentation. Ultra-low load nanoscratching tests were performed to assess the relative scratch resistance of the films and measure their friction coefficients. The mechanical and tribological performance of the three materials are discussed and compared.
