  This article reports the study of mechanical properties of high chromium steel after N-ion implantation. The samples are implanted with 120keV N-ion at doses ranging from 1x1017ions/square cm to 4x1018ions/square cm. Mechanical properties of implanted samples are compared with those of Cr-plated samples. The compositions of the N-ion implanted layer were measured by Auger electrons spectroscopy(AES). Their mechanical properties as a function of N-ion doses were characterized by nano-indentation, sliding and impact wear tests. The results reveal that the hardness and mechanical properties of ion implanted samples were found to depend strongly on the ion doses. The hardness of the N-ion implanted sample with 2x1018ions/? was measured to be approximately 9 GPa, which is approximately 2.3 times higher than that of un-implanted sample (H=3.8 GPa). Also wear properties of N-ion implanted samples with 2x1018ions/? were largely improved ;compared to the Cr-plated samples, the width of wear track and friction coefficient developed on the N-ion implanted samples are about 60% and 40% smaller, respectively.
