N2 - Thin films of titanium nitride were chemical vapor deposited on (100)-oriented single-crystal silicon substrates from tetrakis (dimethylamino) titanium, Ti((CH3)2N)4, and ammonia gas mixtures in a cold-wall reactor at 623 K and 655 Pa. The films were characterized by Auger electron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron spectroscopy. The nano-scale hardness of the film, measured by nanoindentation, was 12.7±0.6 GPa. The average kinetic friction coefficient against unlubricated, type-440C stainless steel was determined using a computer-controlled friction microprobe to be approx.0.43.
