  2. Applications of DLC Film

  3. High Residual Compressive Stress of DLC Films DLC Coating • Causes the Instability of the Coating • Affects the Physical Properties in Some Cases

  4. Self Delamination of DLC Films • K.-R. Lee et al., Diam. Rel. Mater. 2 (1993) 208. • M.-W. Moon et al., Acta Mater., 50 (2002) 1219.

  28. Raman Spectra

  29. Summary • Presently suggested method for the elastic modulus measurement enabled us to compare the mechanical properites and thus the atomic bond structures of very thin amorphous carbon films. • ta-C films showed insignificant structural evolution during the initial period of deposition. • a-C:H showed the significant structural evolution in both polymeric and graphitic film deposition condition. • a-C:H film deposited in optimum ion energy condition didn’t show the structural evolution.
