Abstract
⺠TiSiN coating was deposited using a combination of direct current (DC) and radio frequency (RF) PVD magnetron sputtering. ⺠The deposition processes were conducted by utilizing an L9 Taguchi orthogonal array. ⺠Variable input parameters were optimized for achieving high scratch adhesion strength of the TiSiN coatings. ⺠Optimization resulted in an increase of the critical load from 827 mN to 1371 mN, signifying an improvement of over 65%.
