Abstract

ABSTRACTDiamond-like carbon (DLC) films have a unique combination of physical and chemical properties such as high hardness, optical transparency, low coefficient of friction and chemical inertness. A pulsed laser (248 nm) has been used to ablate a pyrolytic graphite target to deposit DLC films on Si (100) and 7059 Corning glass substrates. The deposition was carried out in high vacuum (≤ 10−6 Torr) at different temperatures ranging from room temperature to 400°C. The films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and Raman spectroscopie techniques. The mechanical properties (hardness and Young's modulus) of these films were characterized by nanoindentation. We have found that the films deposited at room temperature and 100°C show the characteristic features of DLC films and have the better hardness and modulus properties compared to the films fabricated at higher temperatures, which transform into amorphous carbon. Correlations of pulsed laser deposition process parameters with the properties of deposited DLC films will be discussed in this paper.
