The results of deposition and following research of nano-multilayer resistive films, provided for the high long-term stability resistors, distinguishing by temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) around zero and necessitate negative value, and made by using classical Cr-Ni-Si material, are presented in this work. This multilayer structure consists of 3-8 nm resistive layers and 1-2 nm sliced barrier-insulator layers spaced each between another for preventing the vertical coalescence of metal grains. Resistive thin films were deposited by using magnetron sputtering and after it the barrier-insulator layers were formed by plasma-assisted oxidation of segregated silicon. Composition and thickness of the resistive layer was chosen in such a way as after the magnetron sputtering from Cr-Ni-Si (54-06-40 w/w %) alloy target, we would have enough of silicon necessary to form the Si-amorphous matrix and barrier layer as well. However, there should be not overmuch of metals Cr and Ni to avoid the intergrowth of Cr-Ni nano-grain precipitates, which should not form the metal predicted conductivity after annealing. Experimental results show that multilayer system of two or three resistive layers having sheet resistivity R-S = 300-550 ohm/sq. can ensure the TCR in a range from +/- 2 ppm K-1 up to the negative value of -60 ppm K-1. The long-term stability of these nano-multilayer films is Delta R/R (t = 1000 h, T-st = 358 K)
