Thick non-hydrogenated DLC films (∼ 1μm), consisting of alternating sub-layers of high/low sp3 content, were deposited onto n++ Si substrates using the filtered cathodic vacuum arc method. These films were systematically studied to determine how the changes in composition of the sub-layers would affect the mechanical properties such as intrinsic stress, hardness, friction coefficient, wear rate and surface roughness. Variations of both the ratio of hard to soft layers (from 1:3 to 3:1) and thickness of individual layers (from 12.5nm to 75nm) were studied in detail. The stress of the film was sufficiently lowered (7.8GPa–2.4GPa) by the multilayer approach. The results indicated that although hardness has some correlations with the internal composition of the film, the reduced Young's modulus is largely not affected. Wear and frictional characterizations also showed that the multilayer was a good candidate for many mechanical applications. 相似文献

The effect of nitrogen doping on the mechanical and electrical performance of single-layer tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C:N) coatings of up to 1 μm in thickness was investigated using a custom-made filtered cathode vacuum arc (FCVA). The results obtained revealed that the hardness and electrical resistance of the coatings decreased from 65 ± 4.8 GPa (3 kΩ/square) to 25 ± 2.4 GPa (10 Ω/square) with increasing nitrogen gas ratio, which indicates that nitrogen doping occurs through substitution in the sp2 phase. Subsequent AES analysis showed that the N/C ratio in the ta-C:N thick-film coatings ranged from 0.03 to 0.29 and increased with the nitrogen flow rate. Variation in the G-peak positions and I(D)/I(G) ratio exhibit a similar trend. It is concluded from these results that micron-thick ta-C:N films have the potential to be used in a wide range of functional coating applications in electronics. 相似文献

Tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) film was coated on aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) films via filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA) technique. Field electron emission properties of the CNT films and the ta-C/CNT films were measured in an ultra high vacuum system. The I–V measurements show that, with a thin ta-C film coating, the threshold electric field (Ethr) of CNTs can be significantly decreased from 5.74 V/μm to 2.94 V/μm, while thick ta-C film coating increased the Ethr of CNTs to around 8.20 V/μm. In addition, the field emission current density of CNT films reached 14.9 mA/cm2 at 6 V/μm, while for CNTs film coated with thin ta-C film only 3.1 V/μm of applied electric field is required to reach equal amount of current density. It is suggested that different field emission mechanisms should be responsible for the distinction in field emission features of CNT films with different thickness of ta-C coating. 相似文献

Unhydrogenated amorphous carbon films with different silicon concentrations were synthesized by magnetron sputtering, and the corresponding evolution of inter-atomic bonding configurations, surface roughness and mechanical properties like hardness, modulus and stress was analyzed. Introducing silicon into amorphous carbon not only reduced the sp2-hybridized carbon bonding, it also helped to reduce residual stress. Both the hardness and elastic modulus suffered degradation when the silicon concentration was low. But these properties recovered when silicon dosage increased. Surface roughness increased when silicon concentration was low, but decreased when the silicon dosage increased. Such changes in the mechanical properties were closely related to the carbon and silicon inter-atomic interaction. The amorphous carbon network was modified by silicon, and affected by deposition kinetics. The mismatch in the atomic size and bond length, and the alteration of the carbon hybridization were determined to be the basis for the changes in the mechanical properties. 相似文献

Nanoscratch testing has been used to investigate the tribological behaviour of 5, 20, 60 and 80 nm tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) thin films deposited on silicon by the filtered cathodic vacuum arc method. The nanoscratch behaviour of the films was found to depend on the film thickness, with 60 and 80 nm films undergoing border cracking and then at higher critical load a dramatic delamination event. 5 and 20 nm films have a lower critical load for onset of border cracks but do not undergo a clear dramatic failure, and instead are increasingly worn/ploughed through until film removal as confirmed by microscopic analysis. This is consistent with the thinner films having lower stress and reduced load-carrying ability. Nanoindentation confirms that the thicker films have enhanced load support and higher measured composite (film + substrate) hardness. The 80 nm film in particular can retain appreciable load support whilst deformed during indentation, as shown by its ability to alter the critical loads for contact-induced phase transformations in the Silicon substrate during unloading. 相似文献

Electrochemistry and nucleation mechanism of induced co-deposition of cobalt, tungsten and phosphorus from a citrate bath was investigated using voltammetry and chronoamperometry techniques. It was found that the induced co-deposition of the species occurred under diffusion control and followed instantaneous nucleation mechanism. Co-W-P coatings were electrodeposited potentiostatically on plain carbon steels from a citrate bath containing CoSO4, Na2WO4 and NaH2PO2. X-ray diffraction studies of the coatings revealed that the as-deposited Co81W10P9 coatings had amorphous structure. The formation of some stoichiometric compounds like Co3W, Co2P and WP2, however, was observed upon annealing at 600 °C. The hardness of the Co-W-P coatings increased with annealing temperature which was possibly due to the formation of these inter-elemental compounds. The corrosion resistance of the Co-W-P coatings increased with increase in annealing temperature which might also be due to the formation of the stoichiometric compounds at elevated temperatures. A comparison between coating characteristics of Co-W-P and chromium showed that the Co-W-P coatings exhibited nobler corrosion potential than chromium coatings. 相似文献

This study is focused on the impact of oxygen plasma treatment on properties of carbon fibers and interfacial adhesion behavior between the carbon fibers and epoxy resin. The influences of the main parameters of plasma treatment process, including duration, power, and flow rate of oxygen gas were studied in detail using interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of carbon fiber composites. The ILSS of composites made of carbon fibers treated by oxygen plasma for 1 min, at power of 125 W, and oxygen flow rate of 100 sccm presented a maximum increase of 28% compared to composites made of untreated carbon fibers. Furthermore, carbon fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), tensile strength test, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), and Raman spectroscopy analyses. It was found that the concentration of reactive functional groups on the fiber surface was increased after the plasma modification, as well the surface roughness, which finally improved the interfacial adhesion between carbon fibers and epoxy resin. However, high power and long exposure times could partly damage the surface of carbon fibers and decrease the tensile strength of filaments and ILSS of treated fiber composites. 相似文献

Amorphous hydrogenated carbon coatings a-C:H become very popular materials mainly because of their excellent properties such as low coefficient of friction, high hardness, good anti-wear and corrosion properties. More and more often are carried works aimed at improvement of biocompatibility and adhesion of bacterial cells by doping diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating with third element. Among them recently a great majority is devoted to carbon coatings doped with silver or silicon. The presence of silver in the coating ensures protection of the implant against the disadvantageous influence of bacteria and fungi causing biofilm associated infections, local inflammation and other implant-tissue reactions. Incorporation of silicon promotes osteointegration and leads to the enhancement of mechanical and tribological properties of the coating, which is beneficial for biomedical applications.Silver and silicon incorporated DLC coatings were prepared by a hybrid Radio Frequency Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition/Magnetron Sputtering deposition technique on AISI316L substrates. Obtained coatings were characterized in terms of morphology, surface topography and mechanical properties. Tribological properties of the coatings were measured by lateral force microscopy and reciprocating sliding test using nanoindenter. 相似文献

Aligned multi-walled carbon nanotube forests were grown by chemical vapour deposition on carbon fibers by the use of an amorphous Si interface. The Si layer creates a barrier, hindering the Fe catalyst diffusion into the carbon fibers. This method provides a way to tailor the thermal, electrical and mechanical properties of the fiber-resin interface of a polymer composite. 相似文献

Thermal radiation dominates the heat transfer in coal gasification or combustion furnaces operated at high temperatures. This study is to evaluate the radiation properties of coal char or ash particles, which are necessary to predict the behavior of heat transfer of a multiphase flow in the furnace. The monochromatic extinction of the sample particles dispersed in liquid paraffin wax was measured by the FT-IR spectroscopic analysis at a room temperature. Carbon containing in char particles influences significantly extinction efficiency as a radiation property. The normalized extinction efficiency was correlated by an exponential function of carbon content if the sample was prepared appropriately although the spectra depended on the preparation method of the samples. 相似文献

A thick layer of amorphous silicon (a-Si) was deposited on industrial grade crystalline n-Si < 111 > substrate by means of electron beam evaporation. On top of a-Si layer, amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) film was grown by direct ion beam deposition from acetylene precursor gas. In order to study on atomic level the a-C:H film growth on amorphous silicon, a theoretical model was developed in a form of reaction rate (kinetic) equations. Numerical simulation using this model has revealed that the ratio of sp3/sp2 content in the film is heavily influenced by relaxation rate of the carbon atoms in a sub-surface region of the film that were activated by ion irradiation. The final structure of a-C:H film does not depend much on elemental composition and structure of amorphous Si coating, provided that deposition procedure is not terminated at its initial stage but continues for more than 60 s. It became evident, therefore, that the use of a-Si interlayer with a-C:H films could be particularly beneficial when a need arises to minimize or eliminate the effect of the substrate. As one of such cases, a poor adhesion of amorphous carbon on steel and other ferrous alloys could be mentioned. 相似文献

Tight-binding calculations shed light onto the link between disorder and optical properties in pure amorphous carbon films. It is shown that the Urbach energy EU is an excellent probe of disorder in such films. Our striking finding is that EU varies non-monotonically with sp3 fraction and optical gap, contrary to what is seen experimentally in hydrogenated samples. Firm evidence is provided, supported by experimental measurements, that in dense films the higher the sp3 fraction the lower the disorder. The Urbach energy has a value of ∼ 0.09 eV for the 100% sp3-bonded network, it reaches a maximum of ∼ 0.3 eV for 65% sp3 content, and it then declines to low values for low-sp3 content films. Analysis of cluster distributions and bond-angle and -length distortions reveals that the Urbach edge is associated to both topological and structural disorder. Another notable finding is that the edge is rather insensitive to the spin density due to unpaired sp2 sites. 相似文献

SiC is a widely used material. Understanding how oxygen content affects the SiC structure and properties is crucial. In this paper, heat treatment was used to prepare SiC powder samples with different oxygen contents, which were doped with AlN and ZrB2 and were densified by pressureless sintering at 2050 °C. The effect of oxygen content on the sintered SiC structure was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The results indicated that the oxygen content influenced the SiC phase composition, grain boundaries, and densification. Additionally, the interaction between oxygen defects and AlN played an important role in sintering. The nanoindentation, alternating-current impedance, and thermal conductivity of the densified SiC specimens were also evaluated to elucidate the influence of the oxygen content on the densified-SiC functional properties. The results revealed that the oxygen content affected all the measured mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. Furthermore, surface oxygen impurities suggested that oxygen content had similar critical effects on both the densified SiC structure and properties. 相似文献

Amorphous carbon films were deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering at various bias voltages Vb applied on Si substrate. We studied the optical properties of the films using in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) measurements in the energy region 1.5–5.5 eV. From the SE data analysis the dielectric function ε(ω) of the a-C films was obtained, providing information about the electronic structure and the bonding configuration of a-C films. Based on the SE data the films are classified in three categories. In Category I and II belong the films developed with Vb≥0 V (rich in sp2 bonds) and −100≤Vb<0 V (rich in sp3 bonds), respectively. The dielectric function of the films belonging in these two categories can be described with two Lorentz oscillators located in the energy range 2.5–5 eV (π–π*) and 9–12 eV (σ–σ*). A correlation was found between the oscillator strength and the sp2 and sp3 contents. The latter were calculated by analyzing the ε(ω) with the Bruggeman effective medium theory. In films deposited with Vb<−100 V (Category III), the formation of a new and dense carbon phase was detected which exhibits a semi-metallic optical behavior and the ε(ω) can be described with two oscillators located at ∼1.2 and ∼5.5 eV. 相似文献

We study the effect of nitrogen content on functional properties, thermal stability and oxidation resistance of hard and optically transparent amorphous Hf-Y-Si-B-C-N coatings prepared by pulsed magnetron sputtering. Ab-initio simulations are performed to link the experimentally obtained properties with the atomic and electronic structures of the fabricated materials. It is shown that the content of N in the material, varied from subsaturation 46 at.% to saturation 51 at.%, is of significant importance for the optimization of thermal stability and tuning the refractive index and extinction coefficient. We identify an optimum N2 content in the plasma and in turn N content in the coatings which outperform the previously introduced high-temperature material Hf6Y2Si29B12C2N45. The results constitute a progress in the efforts to combine multiple functional properties with exceptional (above 1300 °C) thermal stability and oxidation resistance. 相似文献
