Abstract

Mass analyzed and non-mass analyzed carbon ion beams were used to deposit coatings on polished silicon wafers. Extremely, hard dense coatings that are structurally similar to i-carbon as determined by Ramon spectroscopy were achieved with high current beams of methane and argon. Residual contaminants of oxygen and nitrogen were minimized.
