Abstract
The hardness, elastic modulus, and elastic recovery of nanostructured borid e/nitride films 1-2 mu m thick have been investigated by the nanoindentatio n technique under the maximum loads over a wide range (from 5 to 100 mN). I t is demonstrated that only the hardness parameters remain constant at smal l loads (5-30 mN). The data obtained are discussed and compared with the pa rameters determined by other methods.
