Abstract:The coatings comprised of the nanodiamond-based and amorphous-carbon-based phases (a-C:ND coatings) are investigated. The a-C:ND coatings were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition in the arc discharge plasma (by plasma chemical deposition) at various concentrations of Ar/H2/CH4. Raman spectroscopy showed that, apart from the diamond substructure, studied coatings contain amorphous-carbon-based and polyene-based phases, while diamond phase is passivated by hydrogen to different degrees. The interplay betwee… Show more
