  • We have studied the field emission characteristics of diamond-like-carbon (DLC) films deposited by a layer-by-layer technique using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, in which the deposition of a thin layer of DLC and a CH4 plasma exposure on its surface were carried out alternatively. The hydrogen-free DLC can be deposited by CH4 plasma exposure for 140 sec on a 5 nm DLC layer. N2 gas-phase doping in the CH4 plasma was also carried out to reduce the work function of the DLC. The optimum [N2]/[CH4] flow rate ratio was found to be 9% for the efficient electron emission, at which the onset-field was 7.2 V/$\mu\textrm{m}$. It was found that the hydrogen-free DLC has a stable electron emitting property.

  • Various heat-treated and surface coating methods are used to mitigate abrasion in sliding machine parts. The most cost effective of these methods involves hard coatings such as diamond-like carbon (DLC). DLC has various advantages, including a high level of hardness, low coefficient of friction, and low wear rate. In practice, a supporting layer is generally inserted between the DLC layer and the steel substrate to improve the load carrying capacity. In this study, an indentation and sliding contact problem involving a small, hard, spherical particle and a DLC-coated steel surface is modeled and analyzed using a nonlinear finite element code, MARC, to investigate the influence of the supporting layer thickness on the coating characteristics and the related coating failure mechanisms. The results show that the amount of plastic deformation and the maximum principal stress decrease with an increase in the supporting layer thickness. However, the probability of the high tensile stress within the coating layer causing a crack is greatly increased. Therefore, in the case of DLC coating with a supporting layer, fatigue wear can be another important cause of coating layer failure, together with the generally well-known abrasive wear.

  • 본 논문에서는 d33 모드로 구동하여 우수한 성능을 가지는 RF-MEMS 스위치의 구현을 위한 희생층과 구조층의 조합으로서 DLC와 포토레지스트를 제안하였다. 포토레지스트의 경화현상을 방지하기 위하여 DLC 구조층은 상온에서 RF-PECVD 방법을 이용하여 증착하였다. 그리고 PZT 압전층은 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법을 이용하여 상온에서 구조층 위에 증착하였으며, 희생층의 제거 후 결정화를 위하여 급속 열처리 (RTA) 장비를 이용하여 후 열처리하였다. PZT의 결정화 과정과 DLC의 기계적 성질의 변화를 다양한 온도조건에 따라 분석한 결과 DLC는 PZT의 결정화 온도까지 영률과 강도면에서 우수한 특성을 나타냄을 확인하였다. 또한 포토레지스트를 사용함으로서 공정을 단순화하고 낮은 비용으로 제작이 가능하였다.

  • The purpose of this study is to enhance an adhesion between substrate and Diamond-like Carbon (DLC) film. DLC has many outstanding properties such as low friction, high wear resistance and corrosion resistance. However, it is difficult to achieve enough adhesion because of weak bonding between DLC film and the substrate. For improvement adhesion, a layer between DLC film and the substrate was prepared by dual post plasma. DLC film was deposited on nitrided layer by linear ion source. The composed compound layer between substrate and DLC film was investigated by Glow Discharge Spectrometer (GDS) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The synthesized bonding structure of DLC film was analyzed using a micro raman spectrometer. Mechanical properties were measured by nano-indentation. In order to clarify the mechanism for improvement in adhesive strength, it was observed by scratch test.

  • 13.56MHz를 사용하는 r.f.PACVD(Plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition)방법 으로 다층 다이아몬드상 카본(DLC)필름을 Si wafer기판 위에 합성하였다. 다층 DLC필름은 2.5$\mu$m두께의 순수한 DLC필름과 0.2$\mu$m두께의 Si이 함유된 Si-DLC필름으로 구성되었으 며, ball on disk type의 tribometer를 이용하여 대기 중에서 다층 DLC필름의 마모거동을 고 찰하였다. 표면층으로 합성된 Si-DLC필름내의 Si함량이 증가함에 따라 다층 DLC필름과 AISI52100 steel ball 사이에 0.1 이하의 낮은 마찰계수를 유지하는 기간이 증가하였다. 44,000cycle과 158,400cycle의 마모실험 후 측정된 다층 DLC필름의 마모율은 각각 $2.5\times10^{-8}\sim1.8\times10^{-7}\textrm{mm}^3$/rev.과 $7.1\times10^{-9}\sim1.8\times10^{-8}\textrm{mm}^3$/rev.로 나타났다. 158,400cycle의 마모실험 후 측정된 마모율은 내마모 특성이 우수한 DLC필름보다도 2배 정도 우수한 것으로 나타났 다. 마모시험에 의해 형성된 debris의 조성을 분석한 결과, 이런 낮은 마찰계수와 우수한 내 마모 특성은 steel ball의 wear 표면을 덮고 있는 Si oxide debris층의 형성에 따른 결과로 판단되었다. 또한, 이러한 steel ball의 wear scar표면에 형성된 debris층을 제거하여도, 새로 운 Si oxide debris층이 wear scar표면에 다시 생성되어 낮은 마찰계수를 유지하고 있었다.

  • To investigate the humidity effect on tribological behaviors of Si-DLC/DLC multi-layers, the samples were prepared using a system consisted of an ion-gun for deposition DLC films and a balanced magnetron sputter for introducing silicon atoms to Si-DLC films. The Si-DLC/DLC multi-layers were composed of pure DLC films and Si-incorporated DLC films alternatively and had different bilayer numbers. Hardness and residual stress were drastically decreased through the formation of Si-DLC/DLC multi-layers compared to those of the pure and Si-incorporated DLC films. Wear results obtained under the various humidity conditions (<10%, $40{\sim}50%$, and >85%) showed that the pure DLC film was largely depended on the humidity while the Si-DLC and the Si-DLC/DLC multi-layers were little affected by the environmental humidity. Although friction coefficients of all samples were increased with the relative humidity, the multi-layer films showed relatively lower friction coefficients that those of the single films.

  • We produce a photosensitive convex plate to research a Nickel metal relief printing plate using galvanic process. A Method for preparing DLC convex plate that is metalized on Nickel metal relief printing plate using CVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition) process and $N_2DLC$-convex plate that is DLC metalized thin film layer of $N_2$ plasma surface treatment are comprised. DLC thin film layers on Nickel surface are fragile. The results of the research indicate that the coefficient of friction on DLC metalized thin film layer is relatively low than Nickel surface and the durability of Nickel surface coated DLC metalized thin film layer is superior to Nickel surface. A relative evaluation of three form plate wetting properties using varnish liquid-drop plate indicates superior printing aptitudes for $N_2DLC$, DLC, Nichel plate order as above.

  • Diamond-like carbon (DLC) is difficult to achieve sufficient adhesion because of weak bonding between DLC film and the substrate. The purpose of this study is to improve the adhesion between substrate and DLC film. DLC film was deposited on AISI H13 using linear ion source. To improve adhesion, the substrate was treated by dual post plasma nitriding. In order to define the mechanism of the improvement in adhesive strength, the gradient layer between substrate and DLC film was analyzed by Glow Discharge Spectrometer (GDS) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The microstructure of the DLC film was analyzed using a micro Raman spectrometer. Mechanical properties were measured by nano-indentation, micro vickers hardness tester and tribology tester. The characteristic of adhesion was observed by scratch test. The adhesion of the DLC film was enhanced by active screen plasma nitriding layer.

  • DLC coating on ceramics is very useful for manufacturing the materials with hardness and low friction. Adhesion of DLC thin film on ceramics, on the other hand, is usually very weak. Adhesion of DLC film depends on many parameters such as contamination and chemical bonding between thin film and substrate. In this study, adhesion of DLC film on ceramics was improved by the intermediate layer when the plasma immersion ion deposition (PIID) technique was applied. It is found that the chemical composition and the thickness of intermediate layer have significantly an effect on the adhesion of DLC thin film on $Al_2O_3$.
