Abstract:This study explores the optimization of target-substrate distance (TSD) in coaxial arc plasma deposition technique for depositing nanodiamond composite (NDC) films on unheated WC–Co substrates, with a focus on enhancing properties relevant to cutting tool applications. TSD significantly impacted film growth and adhesion, while hardness and Young’s modulus remained stable within the 10–50 mm TSD range. Increased TSD led to reduced deposition rates and film thickness, but improved quality by eliminating macropar… Show more
