Reactive radio frequency (RF)magnetron sputter with incident angle has been used to deposit AlN thin film on a crystalline Si substrate. (002)Preferred orientation of AlN thin film has been obtained at low sputtering pressure. Also it has been shown that depostion rate of AIN thin film is affected by fraction Ar and $N_2$ partial pressure. But substrate temperature didn't affect depostion rate of AIN thin film . As sputtering pressure increased preferred orientation degraded. The internal stress changed from tensile stress to compressive stress as fraction of $N_2$ partial pressure increased. At low nitrogen partial pressure cermet$^{[1]}$ AIN thin film is obtained.
