Ti-Si-N coating layers were deposited onto WC-Co substrates by a hybrid system of arc ion plating (AIP) and sputtering techniques. The tribological behaviors of Ti-Si-N coating layers with various Si contents were investigated by the dry sliding wear experiments, which were conducted at three different sliding speeds, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5 m/s, against the steel and alumina balls. In the case of steel ball, the average friction coefficient slightly decreased with increasing the sliding speed regardless of Si content due to adhesive wear behavior between coating layer and steel ball. At constant sliding speed, the average friction coefficient decreased with increase of Si content. On the contrary, in the case of alumina ball, the average friction coefficient increased with increasing the sliding speed regardless of Si content, indicating that the abrasive wear behavior was more dominant when the coating layers slide against alumina ball. Through these experimental results, it was found that the tribological behaviors of Ti-Si-N coating layers were effected by factors such as Si content, sliding speed, and kinds of counterpart materials rather than the hardness of coating layer.

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.

Ti-Si-N coating layers were codeposited on silicon wafer substrates by a DC reactive magnetron sputtering technique using separate titanium and silicon targets in $N_2$/Ar gas mixtures. The oxidation behavior of Ti-Si-N coating layers containing 4.0 at.%, 10.0 at.%, and 27.3 at.% Si was investigated at temperatures ranging from 600 to $960^{\circ}C$. The coating layers containing 4.0 at.% Si became fast oxidized from $600^{\circ}C$ while the coating layers containing 10.0 at.% Si had oxidation resistance up to $800^{\circ}C$. It was concluded that an increase in Si content to a level of 10.0 at.% led to the formation of finer TiN grains and a uniformly distributed amorphous Si3N4 phase along grain boundaries, which acted as efficient diffusion barriers against oxidation. However, the coating layers containing 27.3 at.% Si showed relatively low oxidation resistance compared with those containing 10.0 at.% Si. This phenomenon would be explained by the existence of free Si which was not nitrified in the coating layers containing 27.3 at.% Si.

This study formed a hard TiAlSiWN coating layer using Ti, Al, Si and W raw powders that were mechanically alloyed and refined. The TiAlSi and TiAlSiW coating targets were fabricated using a single PCAS process in a short time with the optimal sintering conditions. The coating targets were deposited on the WC substrate by forming coating layers using TiAlSiN and TiAlSiWN nitride nano-composite structures with an AIP process. The properties of the nitride nano-composite coating layers were compared according to the addition of W. The microstructure of the nitride nano-composite coating layer was analyzed, focusing on the distribution of the crystalline phases, amorphous phases ($Si_3N_4$), and growth orientation of the columnar crystal depending on the addition of W. The mechanical properties of the coating layers were exhibited a hardness of approximately $3,000kg/mm^2$ and adhesion of about 117.77N in the TiAlSiN. In particular, the TiAlSiWN showed excellent properties with a hardness of more than $4,300kg/mm^2$ and an adhesion of about 181.47N.

아크 이온 플레이팅과 스퍼터로 구성된 하이브리드 시스템을 이용하여 다성분계 Ti-Al-Si-N 코팅막을 WC-Co 기판에 증착하였다. 증착시 Si 함량을 변화시켜 코팅막의 마모특성에 Si 함량이 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 마모 특성을 관찰하기 위하여 Ti-Al-Si-N 코팅막이 증착된 WC-Co 원판에 3N의 하중, 0.1 m/s의 속도로 볼 온 디스크(ball-on-disk) 형태의 마모시험기를 이용하여 건식 마모 실험을 하였다. 상대재로는 스틸볼과 지르코니아볼을 사용하였다. 상대재가 스틸볼의 경우 Ti-Al-Si-N 코팅막의 마찰계수가 Ti-Al-N 코팅막의 마찰계수보다 낮게 나타났다 이는 Si가 첨가되어 마모시 상대재와 코팅막 사이에 자기윤활효과(self-lubricant effect)에 의한 것으로 여겨진다. 코팅막과 스틸볼 사이에 응착 마모 거동을 보였으며, Si의 함량이 증가함에 따라 마찰계수는 감소하였다. 한편, 상대재가 지르코니아 볼의 경우 코팅막과 지르코니아 볼 사이에서 연삭마모 거동이 더 지배적이었고, Si 함량이 증가할수록 마찰계수는 증가하였다.

TiAlCrSiN nano-composite coating had a high hardness of about 39.9 GPa and a low coefficient of friction of less than about 0.47 in a dry environment. In addition, there was no change in the structure of the coating after the dissolution loss test in the molten metal at a temperature of about 1100 degrees.

Ti-Al-N ($Ti_{75}$ $Al_{25}$ N) and Ti-Al-Si-N ($Ti_{69}$ $Al_{23}$ $Si_{8}$N) coatings synthesized by a DC magnetron sputtering technique were studied comparatively with respect to phase characterization and high-temperature oxidation behavior. $Ti_{69}$ $Al_{23}$ $Si_{ 8}$N coating had a nanocomposite microstructure consisting of nanosized(Ti,Al,Si)N crystallites and amorphous $Si_3$$N_4$, with smooth surface morphology. Ti-Al-N coating of which surface $Al_2$$O_3$ layer formed during oxidation suppressed further oxidation. It was sufficiently stable against oxidation up to about $700^{\circ}C$. Ti-Al-Si-N coating showed better oxidation resistance because both surface Ab03 and near-surface $SiO_2$ layers suppressed further oxidation. XRD, GDOES, XPS, and scratch tests were performed.

Ti-Al-Cr-N thin layer was prepared on Fe-Si thin sheet by arc ion plating to improve corrosion and mechanical properties. The compositions ratios of Fe : Cr : Al : Ti : Si : N of the thin layers at $500^{\circ}C$ was 1.24 : 0.56 : 36.82 : 32.72 : 0.59 : 28.07 [wt.%], respectively. The higher arc ion plating temperature was, the higher corrosion resistance and nano-hardness were observed due to chromium content. Corrosion potential and corrosion rate in artificial sea water of the coating layer were in the range of $-39mV_{SHE}$ and $2mA/cm^2$, respectively. Passivity was not observed in the artificial sea water. Nano-hardnesses of the thin layers was increased by adding Cr from 23.6 to 25.8 [GPa]. The friction coefficients and fatigue limits of the layers were 0.388, 0.031, respectively.

The degradation behaviors of TiN coating layers under thermo-mechanical stress were investigated in terms of comparison of finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental data. The coating specimen was designed to quarter cylinder model, and the pulsed laser ablation was assumed as heat flux condition. The FEA results showed that heat accumulation at the center of the laser-ablated spot occurred and principle stress was concentrated at the lower region of the coating layer. The microstructural observation revealed that surface melting and decrease of the coating thickness occurred in the TiN/Inconel 617 and the interfacial cracks formed in the TiN/Si. The delamination was caused by the mechanical stress from the center to the outside of the ablated spot as the FEA results expected. It was considered that the improvement of the thermal shock resistance was attributed to higher thermal conductivity of Si wafer than that of Inconel 617.
