$Si_3N_4$ is a ceramic material attracting attention in many fields because of its excellent abrasion resistance. In addition, Ti and TiAl alloys are metals used in a variety of high temperature environments, and have attracted much attention because of their high strength and high melting points. Therefore, study of the interface reaction between $Si_3N_4/Ti$ and $Si_3N_4/TiAl$ can be a useful practice to identify phase selection and diffusion control. In this study, $Si_3N_4/Ti_5Si_3+TiN/TiN/Ti$ diffusing pairs were formed in the $Si_3N_4/Ti$ interfacial reaction and $Si_3N_4/TiN(Al)/Ti_3Al/TiAl$ diffusion pathway was identified in the $Si_3N_4/TiAl$ interfacial reaction. The diffusion layers of the interface reactions were identified and, to investigate the kinetics of the diffusion layer, the integrated diffusion coefficients were estimated.

Phase equilibria in the system Si3N4-TiC-TiCxN1-x-C-N were determined by thermodynamic calculations (CALPHAD-method). The reaction peaction paths for Si3N4-TiC and SiC-TiC composites in the Ti-Si-C-n system were simulated at I bar N2-pressure and varying terpreatures. At a temperature of 1923 K two tie-triangles (TiC0.34N0.66+SiC+C and TiC0.13N0.87+SiC+Si3N4) and two 2-phase fieds (TiCxN1-x+SiC; 0.13

In order to make the electroconductive $Si_3N_4$-TiN composities, the Si-Ti(N) compacts were nitrided at $1450^{\circ}C$ for 20hours, and then they were post-sintered by a gas-pressure-sintering technique at 1TEX>$1950^{\circ}C$ for 3.5 hours. As starting powders, commercial si powder of about $10\mu\textrm{m}$, two types of Ti powders of 100 and 325 mesh, and fine-sized TiN of $2.5\mu\textrm{m}$ powders were used. In the $Si_3N_4$-TiN sintered bodies used Ti powders, the relative density and fracture strength and electrical conductivity are low due to the existence of large amounts of coarse pores. However, in the $Si_3N_4$-TiN composite used TiN powder, the fracture toughness, fracture strength and electrical resistivity were $5.0MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, 624MPa and $1400{\omega}cm$, respectively. The dispersion of TiN particles in the composite inhibited the growth of $Si_3N_4$ in the shape of rod and made strong strain field contrasts at the $Si_3N_4$-TiNinterfaces. It was recognized that microstructural control is required to improve the electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of $Si_3N_4$-TiN composites by dispersing TiN particles homogeneously.

4성분계 Ti-Si-C-N 코팅막은 $TiCl_4$, $SiH_4$, $CH_4$, Ar, 그리고 $N_2$ 가스 혼합체를 이용하여 RF-PECVD 기법에 의해 Si 와 AISI 304 기판위에 합성하였다. Ti-C-(0.6)-N(0.4) 조성의 코팅막에 Si를 첨가함으로 Ti(C,N) 결정질은 줄어들고, Si3N4 및 SiC 비정질상이 나타났다. Ti-Si(9.2 at.%)-C-N의 조성에서 나노 크기의 nc-Ti(C,N) 결정질을 비정질 a-Si3N4/SiC가 둘러싸고 있는 형태의 나노 복합체를 나타내었다. 경도 24 Gpa의 Ti-C-N 코팅막은 Si를 첨가함으로 Ti-Si(9.2 at.%)-C-N 조성에서 46 Gpa의 최고 경도를 나타내었으며, 마찰계수의 경우에도 Ti-C-N 코팅막에 Si를 첨가함으로 크게 낮아졌다.

The $TiO_2/Si_3N_4/Ag/Si_3N_4/TiO_2$ multi layered structure was designed for the possible application of transparent electrodes in PDP (Plasma Display Panel). Multi layered film was deposited on a glass substrate at room temperature by DC/RF magnetron sputtering system and EMP (Essential Macleod Program) was adopted to optimize the optical characteristics of film. During the deposition process, the Ag layer in $TiO_2/Ag/TiO_2$ became heavily oxidized and the filter characteristic was degraded easily. In thus study, Si3N4 layer was used as a diffusion buffer layer between $TiO_2$ and Ag. in order to prevent the oxidation of Ag layer in $TiO_2/Si_3N_4/Ag/Si_3N_4/TiO_2$ structure. It was confirmed that $Si_3N_4$ layer is one of candidate materials acting as diffusin barrier between $TiO_2/Ag/TiO_2$.

Titanium carbide(TiC), Titanium nitride(TiN), and Titanium carbonnitride(Ti(C,N)) films were deposited on $Si_3N_4$-TiC composite cutting tools by chemical vapor deposition(CVD) using $TiCl_4-CH_4-H_2$, $TiCl_4-N_2-H_2$, and $TiCl_4-CH_4-N_2-H_2$ gas mixtures, respectively. The experimental results indicate that TiC coatings compared with TiN coatings on $Si_3N_4$ -TiC ceramic have an improved microstructural property, good thermal shock resistance, and good interfacial bonding. However TiN coatings compared with TiC coatings have a low friction coefficient with steel and good chemical stability. It is found by cutting test that coated insert compared with $Si_3N_4$-TiC ceramic have a superior flank and crater wear resistance. And multilayer coating compared with monolayer coating shows a improved wear resistance.

Quaternary Ti-Al-Si-N films were deposited on WC-Co substrates by a hybrid deposition system of arc ion plating (AIP) method for Ti-Al source and DC magnetron sputtering technique for Si incorporation. The synthesized Ti-Al-Si-N films were revealed to be composites of solid-solution (Ti,Al)N crystallites and amorphous $Si_3N_4$ by instrumental analyses. The Si addition in Ti-Al-N films affected the refinement and uniform distribution of crystallites by percolation phenomenon of amorphous silicon nitride, similarly to Si effect in TiN film. As the Si content increased up to about 9 at.%, the hardness of Ti-Al-N film steeply increased from 30 GPa to about 50 GPa. The highest microhardness value (~50 GPa) was obtained from the Ti-Al-Si-N film having the Si content of 9 at.%, the microstructure of which was characterized by a nanocomposite of $nc-(Ti,Al)N/a-Si_3N_4$.

The Ti-Si-N coating layers were synthesized on SKD 11 steel substrate by a DC reactive magnetron co-sputtering technique with separate Ti and Si targets. The high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses for the coating layers revealed that microstructure of Ti-Si-N layer was nanocomposite, consisting of nano-sized TiN crystallites surrounded by amorphous $Si_3$$N_4$ phase. The highest hardness value of about 39 GPa was obtained at the Si content of ~11at.%, where the microstructure had fine TiN crystallites (about 5nm in size) dispersed uniformly in amorphous matrix. As the Si content in Ti-Si-N films increased, the TiN crystallites became from aligned to randomly oriented microstructure, finer, and fully penetrated by amorphous phase. Free Si appeared in the layers due to the deficit of nitrogen source at higher Si content. Friction coefficient and wear rate of the Ti-Si-N coating layer significantly decreased with increase of relative humidity. The self-lubricating tribe-layers such as $SiO_2$ or (OH)$Si_2$ seemed to play an important role in the wear behavior of Ti-Si-N film against steel.
