Scratch resistance of brittle thin films on compliant substrates

There has been intensive interest in studying the behavior of hard and brittle thin films on compliant substrates under scratch action. The examples include sol–gel protective coatings on plastic optical lenses, safe windows, and flexible electronic devices and displays. Hard ceramic coatings have b...
