The multilayer films Mo2N/CrN were deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering at 600°C on Si substrates with different bi-layer periods λ ranging from 5 to 50 nm. The microstructure of the multilayer was investigated from X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (cross section images). Both films, Mo2N and CrN deposited at 600°C present a face centered cubic structure. As the bi-layer period was decreased, the grain size increases from 14 to 20 nm and are well crystallized with (200) preferred orientation. The nanohardness measurements show that the mechanical properties of Mo2N/CrN multilayers depend on the bi-layer period and the highest value of 29 GPa was obtained at the bilayer period of 10 nm.
