The Influence of Preparation Conditions on the Structural Properties and Hardness of Diamond-Like Carbon Films, Prepared by Plasma Source Ion Implantation

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were prepared from a hydrocarbon precursor gas by plasma source ion implantation (PSII), in which the plasma generation and the film deposition were coupled; i.e., the plasma was generated by the applied voltage and no additional plasma source was used. Several experi...
