abstract = "The effect of magnetic field enhanced plasma immersion ion
implantation (PIII) on SS304 austenitic stainless steel samples
has been investigated. Application of magnetic field in PIII
process leads to the formation of the crossed E×B field
configuration, promoting the increase of the plasma density by
electron-neutrals collision. As a result, a high nitrogen ion flux
on SS304 sample was achieved. In this experiment, a moderate
temperature of about 350°C was measured after two hour of
treatment, discarding the possibility of the formation of chromium
nitride. Measurements performed by Auger electron spectroscopy
(AES) showed the formation of a nitrogen implanted layer which was
much greater than the one obtained by standard PIII (at the same
pulsing conditions). Due to that, new peaks in the characteristic
profile of X-ray diffraction were observed as consequence of the
formation of a new phase (³N phase). It has caused as twice as
high improvement in the surface hardness compared to the
conventional PIII. Consequently, a substantial reduction in the
wear rate was obtained. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",
