The paper presents the synthesis of Sn-containing carbon amorphous composite films deposited by the thermionic vacuum arc technique. The chemical composition, morphology, microstructure and crystallographic properties of the films were investigated by energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), low-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The friction coefficients of the prepared films analyzed by a CSM ball-on-disk tribometer sliding against sapphire balls in dry conditions at room temperature were found to be 0.12 to 0.14, which is two to four times lower than that of the substrate material..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
