Monitoring Technological Conditions for Preparing DLC Films in Supersonic Flow of Hydrocarbon Plasma

Abstract

Properties of diamond-like carbon films deposited by a new method in a supersonic flow of hydrocarbon plasma generated by a disk-type magneto-hydro-dynamic accelerator were studied. Two methods are used for optical and structural characterization of diamond-like carbon films: nondestructive spectroscopic ellipsometry and Raman spectroscopy.
