To develope a high precision TiAIN thin film resistor, TiAIN films were deposited on A1$_{2}$03 substrates by reactive planar magnetron cosputtering from Ti and Al targets in an Ar-N$_{2}$ atmosphere. The characteristics of the TiAIN thin film were controlled by changing of the R.F. power on Ti and Al targets, and the N$_{2}$ partial pressure. The high precision TiAIN thin film resistor with TCR(Temperature Coefficient of Resistance) of less than 10ppm/.deg. C was obtained under the R.F. power condition of 160(w)/240(w) to Ti and Al targets at the N$_{2}$ partial pressure of 7*10$^{-5}$ Torr. The composition of these films were investigated by XRD, SEM and EDS.

Microstructure, mechanical properties, and oxidation resistance of TiAIN thin films deposited on quenched and tempered STD61 tool steel by arc ion plating were studied using XRD, XPS and micro-balance. The TiAIN film was grown with the (200) orientation. The grain size of TiAIN thin film decreased with increasing Al contents, while chemical binding energy increased with Al contents. When hard coating films were oxidized at $850^{\circ}C$ in air, oxidation resistance of both TiN and TiCN films became relatively lower since the surface of films formed non-protective film such as $TiO_2$. However, oxidation resistance of TiAIN film was excellent because its surface formed protective layer such as $_A12$$O_3$ and $_Al2$$Ti_{7}$$O_{15}$, which suppressed oxygen intrusion.

The mechanical property and cutting performance of the cutting tools coated with nanoscale nyktukatered nitride film have been investigated. $Ti_{0.54}Al_{0.46}N-CrN$ and $Ti_{0.84}Al_{0.16}N-NlN$ systems, which showed super-lattice in nanoscale multilayered coating, were deposited on WC-Co insert by UBM sputtering, The superlattice coatings with different bilayer periods were manufactured by controlling deposition parameters. The superlattice formation and hardness of the nanoscale multilayered nitride film and the cutting performance of the insert coated with the film were examined. The hardness and cutting performance were dependent on the bilayer periods of the coatings. The flank wear of the inserts with superlattice coatings were decreased over $20\%$, compared to those of commonly used cutting tools coated with TiAIN single phase.
