The incorporation of these elements has been demonstrated to be a good strategy for improving the electrical, optical, and mechanical responses of transition-metal nitride coatings. In this investigation, we report the production of Ag-ZrSiN coatings with varying silver atomic contents, deposited using pulsed-DC reactive magnetron sputtering. The effect of the incorporation of silver on the microstructure, the morphology, and the optical and electrical properties was investigated. The results revealed a nanocomposite structure of Ag-ZrSiN with nc-Ag\/nc-ZrN embedded in an amorphous SiNx phase. The electrical resistivity decreased upon the incorporation of Ag from 77.99 \u03a9\u00b7cm to 0.71 \u03a9\u00b7cm for 0.0 and 12.0 at.% of Ag, respectively. A similar decreasing trend was observed in the transmittance spectra of the coatings as the silver content increased. For the Ag-ZrSiN coating, the transmittance values decreased within the wavelength range of 2500\u2013630 nm and then remained constant down to 300 nm, at about 13.7%. Upon further increase of the silver concentration up to 12 at.%, the transmittance values continued to decrease between 2500 and 630 nm, reaching approximately zero at 630 nm, indicating that the coating becomes opaque within that spectral range.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/coatings13071154","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,27]],"date-time":"2023-06-27T01:42:02Z","timestamp":1687830122000},"page":"1154","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Influence of Ag Doping on the Microstructural, Optical, and Electrical Properties of ZrSiN Coatings Deposited through Pulsed-DC Reactive Magnetron Sputtering"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8520-5050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Henry Samir","family":"Vanegas Parra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Grupo de Investigaci\u00f3n Fundamental y Aplicada en Materiales (GIFAM), Departamento de F\u00edsica, Universidad Antonio Nari\u00f1o, Bogot\u00e1 111511, Colombia"}]},{"given":"Sebasti\u00e1n","family":"Calder\u00f3n Velasco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"INL-International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory, Av.
