This study represents one of the first attempts to deposit multicomponent thin films (more than three components) by magnetron sputtering of multiphase composite targets (three phases or even more). Films of Ti-Si-C-N were synthesized through d.c. magnetron sputtering of xTiC + yTi3SiC2 + zA composite targets (A was TiSi2, SiC or a mixture of these phases) in an argon atmosphere or in a gaseous mixture of argon and nitrogen. The as-deposited films were characterized with Auger electron spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy using selected area electron diffraction and high- resolution techniques, and their microhardness. It was shown that the substrate temperature and the nitrogen concentration in the reactive gas had a strong influence on the structure and the composition of the as-deposited films. The films deposited from the Si-poor targets were either polycrystalline or contained a mixture of nanocrystalline and amorphous phases. An amorphous phase formed as individual grains rather than as intergranular amorphous layers. All films deposited from the Si-rich target were amorphous in their nature. Particular attention has been paid to the atomic structure of grains and grain boundaries in the crystalline films. The contribution of stress in the increasing of the lattice parameter has been also discussed.
