| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ti-Si-N thin films have improved hardness and tribological properties comparing to those of TiN. Since the microstructure was not observed, XPS results were only evidences of the existence of amorphous SiNX. It was aimed to add Si in as solute atoms in TiN in this study. Thin films are prepared by epitaxially grown on single crystal MgO substrates by a pulse laser deposition method. The epitaxial growth of TiN and Ti-Si-N thin films on single crystal MgO substrates were prepared. There was a possiblity that the added Si was dissolved into the TiN lattice. The highest hardness of 56.9 GPa was observed. Chemical shift of Si was confirmed by X-rays photoelectron spectroscopy in the Ti-Si-N thin film. As a result, a peak of 102 eV due to Si-N-binding was obtained which had been considered to be a-SiNX. It was found that the interpretation of peak shift in Ti-Si-N may include the existence of Si atoms dissolved in TiN lattice along with the presence of a-SiNX.
