Since hard coating such as ta:C films are of growing interest for protecting surfaces of industrial machines and high capacity tools against wear and friction or for biomedical applications, more information about the structure‐to‐property relation is required. Therefore, core level X‐ray photoelectron sprectroscopy and X‐ray absorption spectroscopy and spectromicroscopy are used to derive chemical information about selected carbon species.
