Ti-Si-N films obtained by using RF reactive sputtering of targets with various Ti/Si ratios in a $N_2(Ar+N_2)$ gas mixture have been investigated in terms of films resistivity and diffusion barrier performance. The chemical bonding state of Si in the Ti-Si-N film which contained a higher Si content was in the form of amorphous $Si_3N_4$, producing increased film resistivity with increased $N_2$flow rate. Lowering the Si content in the deposited Ti-Si-N film favored the formation of crystalline TiN even at low $N_2$flow rates, and leads to low film resistivity. In addition increasing the N content led to Ti-Si-N films having a higher density and compressive stress, suggesting that the N content in the films appear to be one of the most important factors affecting the diffusion barrier characteristics. Consequently, we proposed the optimum composition in the range of 29~49 at.% of Ti, 6~20 at.% of Si, and 45~55 at.% of N for the Ti-Si-N films having both low resistivity and excellent diffusion barrier performance.
