Characterization of the coatings was carried out using SEM, EDX and TEM. The results show that the composite coatings mainly consist of nanocrystalline γ-Ni, fcc-AlN and fcc-CrN. Increase of the bias from -100 V to -300 V leads to a decrease of the grain size, the number and size of droplets. With increasing bias voltage, the content of N decreased, Ni increased, and the contents of Cr and Al initially increased and then decreased; the deposition rate decreased. With increaseing the nitrogen flow rate, the content of N increased and those of Ni, Cr and Al decreased; while the deposition rate initially increased and then decreased. Comparing to the NiCrAlYSi coating, the Ni+CrAlYSiN coating with a maximum hardness about 9.80 GPa improved about 60% in hardness and 30% in wear resistance.
