Recently, computationally-driven understanding and exploring of materials have gained a lot of attention. One very prominent example of the fruitful symbiosis between theory and experiment is protective coatings based on nitrides. There, modelling serves as a reliable trend-giver and often provides also quantitative predictions.
In the quest of exploring new hard materials, we employ high-throughput ab initio modelling to transition metal borides, in order to characterise their structure, stability, and mechanical properties. The obtained trends are used for deciding on perspective systems (e.g., the Ti-W-B system) for further experimental validation and application-orientated coating development.
