DLC thin films were prepared by microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method on silicon substrates using methane ($CH_4$) and hydrogen ($H_2$) gas mixture. The negative DC bias ($-450V{\sim}-550V$) was applied to enhance the adhesion between the film and the substrate. The films were characterized by Raman spectrometer. The surface morphology was observed by an atomic force microscope (AFM). And also, the friction coefficients were investigated by AFM in friction force microscope (FFM) mode, which were compared with the pin-on-disc (POD) measurement.

Electro-optical (EO) characteristics of the ion beam (IB) aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with oblique ion beam exposure on the diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin film surface were studied. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve of the ion beam aligned IN-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film surface for I min. Also, a faster response time for the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film surface for 1 min can be achieved.

DLC(Diamond-like carbon) films possess high hardness, low friction coefficient, and good wear resistance. Due to these properties, DLC films have been used extensively in magnetic hard disk industry. The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of environmental condition on the tribological behavior of DLC coated hard disk. It is found that the tribological characteristics of DLC films are strongly affected by relative humidity and temperature. Specifically, the friction coefficient increases with increase in temperature at relative humidity of 50%. However, at 20% and 85% RH the effect of temperature was not significant. Also, the degree of wear could be observed using an AFM.

Noncrystalline films of diamond-like carbon (DLC) have been prepared by laser ablation technique at room temperature. A Q-switched Nd-YAG laser beam with wavelength of 1064 nm and pulse duration of 10 ns was focused onto a graphite target with power densities of about $10^9 W/\textrm{cm}^2$. The physical properties of the resulting films were analyzed with density, hardness, and resistivity measurements. The surface and bonding structure were investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), Raman spectroscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS).

We fabricated the conventional silicon tips coated with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) film. The DLC films are prepared by the filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA) technique. With increasing nitrogen content in DLC film, the work function($\phi$) and the turn-on voltage decrease and the emission current increases. This phenomenon is due to the fact that the Fermi-level moves to the conduction band by increasing nitrogen doping concentration. We have tested on the stability of the DLC film coated silicon tip during 2 hours at 500V.

An Inductively Coupled Plasma(ICP) was employed to prepare the Diamond-Like Carbon film with $CH_4$ gas. We observed the changes of mechanical, optical properties and internal stress of the films according to the variation of discharge power and negative-self bias. When weak magnetic field is applied, the properties of film are observed to change drastically. In magnetized case, the micro-hardness and the internal stress increase up to critical point and droped down in marked contrast to unmagnetized case. It suggests that large amount of ion flux exists due to high dissociation rate of the reactive radicals in plasma with magnetic field as reported elsewhere. As a result of FT-IR absorption measurement it could be confirmed that the $CH_x$ bonding and the micro-hardness and the internal stress decreased with the increase of negative-self bias.

The purpose of this work is to develop a highly reliable solar cell based on the diamond-like carbon(DLC)/silicon heterojunction. Thin films of DLC have been deposited by employing both filtered cathodic vacuum arc(FCVA) and magnetron plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition(m-PECVD) systems. Structural, electrical, and optical properties of DLC films deposited are systematically analyzed as a function of deposition conditions, such as magnetic field, substrate bias voltage, gas pressure, and nitrogen content. The I-V measurement has been used to elucidate the mechanism responsible for the conduction process in the DLC/Si junction. Photoresponse characteristics of the junction are measured and its reliability against temperature and light stresses is also analyzed.

We studied the liquid crystal (LC) alignment capabilities and the generation of pretilt angles with ion beam exposure on a diamond like carbon (DLC) layer. A high pretilt angle of 3.5$^{\circ}$ with ion beam exposure on the DLC layer can be obtained. A high pretilt angle in NLC by ion beam alignment method on the DLC layer can be achieved.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities using the new alignment material of diamond like carbon (DLC) thin film. A high pretilt angle of about $4^{\circ}$ was measured by ion beam(IB) exposure on the DLC thin film surface. A good LC alignment was observed by the IB alignment method on the DLC thin film surface at annealing temperature of $200^{\circ}C$, and the alignment defect of the NLC was observed above annealing temperature of $220^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the high NLC pretilt angle and the good thermal stability of LC alignment can be achieved by the IB alignment method on the DLC thin film surface.

다이아몬드상 탄소(diamond-like carbon, DLC) 박막은 명칭에 함축된 의미로 알 수 있듯이 다이아몬드와 유사한 특징을 지니고 있다. DLC 박막은 비정질(amorphous) 고상 탄소 박막으로 구조적으로 Sp$^1$, Sp$^2$, Sp$^3$의 결합들로 구성되어 있다. DLC 박막의 물성으로는 우수한 경도, 내마모성, 낮은 마찰계수, 화학적 안정성 그리고 적외선(IR) 영역에서의 높은 투과율 등이 있다. 현재 DLC 박막은 앞서 열거된 물성들의 장점을 활용하여 다양한 산업분야에서 활발히 응용되고 있다.(중략)
