“…It can be seen that in this case the gauge factor depends on the metal nanoparticle size, distance between the nanoparticles, mechanical properties of the metal and DLC matrix as well as on electrical properties of the nanoparticle and the DLC interface. Between all DLC films containing metal, diamond like carbon films containing nickel appeared to be especially promising due to the combination of controllable resistivity [220], relatively large piezoresistive gauge factor and zero temperature coefficient of resistance [56,57,[221][222][223][224]. Zero temperature coefficient of resistance was reported for piezoresistive DLC:Cr films, too [225].…”

In this work we present an overview on structure formation, optical and electrical properties of diamond like carbon (DLC) based metal nanocomposites deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering and treated by plasma and laser ablation methods. The influence of deposition mode and other technological conditions on the properties of the nanosized filler, matrix components and composition were studied systematically in relation to the final properties of the nanocomposites. Applications of the nanocomposites in the development of novel biosensors combining resonance response of wave guiding structures in DLC based nanocomposites as well as plasmonic effects are also presented.

“…Nickel as carbon composite has found many applications in many fields such as the optical coatings, catalyst, and water splitting electrode [20][21][22]. Stereometric, fractal and multifractal analysis has proved to be a modern tool in characterization of 3-D surface morphology [6,[23][24][25][26].…”

The study's aim was to identify the 3-D surface spatial parameters that describe the 3-D surface microtexture of the nickel–carbon (Ni–C) nanocomposite thin films composed of Ni nanoparticles with different average sizes embedded in amorphous hydrogenated carbon, prepared by the combining radio frequency magnetron sputtering technique and plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF-PECVD). The deposition time was varied at 7, 10 and 13 min, respectively. The sample investigation was performed using an atomic force microscope, and the obtained data were analyzed and visualized using MountainsMap® Premium software to determine their stereometric surface engineering characteristics. The results from this study provide not only fundamental insights into the texture characteristics, but also directions toward their implementation in nanotribological models.

“…In this report, we investigated the electrical properties of ZnO/geranium polymer (Zn/Ge) films with the intention to design composite coatings, which are electrically insulating and biologically active, serving as a relevant material for encapsulation of microelectronic systems and implantable devices. The electrical characteristics of such composites primarily rely on both the metal volume fraction and the chemical structure of the polymer, where the doping level of the composite is typically determined by the filling factor [14]. Therefore, the electrical characteristics of the fabricated ZnO/Ge composites were studied using percolation theories.…”

In this report, the electrical properties of plasma polymer films functionalized with ZnO nanoparticles were investigated with respect to their potential applications in biomaterials and microelectronics fields. The nanocomposite films were produced using a single-step method that combines simultaneous plasma polymerization of renewable geranium essential oil with thermal decomposition of zinc acetylacetonate Zn(acac)2. The input power used for the deposition of composites were 10 W and 50 W, and the resulting composite structures were abbreviated as Zn/Ge 10 W and Zn/Ge 50 W, respectively. The electrical properties of pristine polymers and Zn/polymer composite films were studied in metal–insulator–metal structures. At a quantity of ZnO of around ~1%, it was found that ZnO had a small influence on the capacitance and dielectric constants of thus-fabricated films. The dielectric constant of films with smaller-sized nanoparticles exhibited the highest value, whereas, with the increase in ZnO particle size, the dielectric constant decreases. The conductivity of the composites was calculated to be in the in the range of 10−14–10−15 Ω−1 m−1, significantly greater than that for the pristine polymer, the latter estimated to be in the range of 10−16–10−17 Ω−1 m−1.
