  • Hydrogenated amorphous carbon films were deposited on silicon substrates by using an RF PECVD. The hydrogen/methane ratio was varied from 50% to 88% to study the effect of hytdrogen in the film on the tribological properties. The friction and wear behaviors of the deposited films were investigated by ball-on-disk type wear tester. FT-IR spectra were used to characterize the structure of the films. Tribological properties of carbon films were correlated with their structure such as ratio of "polymer-like" stretching type and that of sp2 bonding. The result showed that the annealing caused a decrease in the amount of wear of contacted $Si_3N_4$ balls and a increase in the coefficient of friction. Possible explanation for annealing effect was discussed by the hydrogen desorption.esorption.

  • The Hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) thin films are deposited to fabricate suppored layer on silicon substrate with a closed field unbalanced magnetron(CFUBM) sputtering system. This study focuses on the characteristic of Diamond like carbon (DLC) films and Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ (PZT) films for membrane structure. The deposition rate and the surface roughness of DLC fims decrease with DC bias voltage. hardness is 26 GPa at -200 V. Interface of DLC/Si and Pt/DLC layers was excellent.
