Deposition of permalloy films by filtered cathodic vacuum arc
The filtered cathodic vacuum arc technique was employed to deposit magnetic films such as FeNi on silicon substrate. Using the normal cathode design, tetrahedral amorphous carbon and metals films can be deposited. If a magnetic target is used, the arc spot always preferably moves to the edge of the target and then extinguishes. Therefore, the arc is not stable and no film can be deposited. A ca...
متن کاملFiltered cathodic arc deposition with ion-species-selective bias.
A dual-cathode arc plasma source was combined with a computer-controlled bias amplifier to synchronize substrate bias with the pulsed production of plasma. In this way, bias can be applied in a material-selective way. The principle has been applied to the synthesis of metal-doped diamondlike carbon films, where the bias was applied and adjusted when the carbon plasma was condensing and the subs...
متن کاملThe effect of nitrogen on the mechanical properties of tetrahedral amorphous carbon films deposited with a filtered cathodic vacuum arc
The mechanical properties of both undoped and nitrogen containing tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C and ta-C:N ) films, such as hardness and E-modulus, are investigated. The mechanical properties are related to the film structures. The ta-C and ta-C:N films are prepared in a filtered cathodic vacuum arc process. Nanoindentation testing is used to measure the mechanical properties of these film...
متن کاملProperties of nitrogen doped tetrahedral amorphous carbon films prepared by filtered cathodic vacuum arc technique
The properties of nitrogen doped tetrahedral amorphous carbon films prepared by the filtered cathodic vacuum arc technique have been studied. The doping species, nitrogen ions, were produced by an ion beam source. The nitrogen flow rate was varied from 0.5 to 10 sccm while keeping other deposition conditions constant. The nitrogen content in deposited films was determined by Rutherford backscat...
متن کاملHeat treatment of tetrahedral amorphous carbon films grown by filtered cathodic vacuum-arc technique
Tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C ) is a potential low-cost substitute for diamond in certain applications, but little is known of the temperature range over which its desirable properties are retained. The thermal stability of tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C ) films has been investigated by heat treatment of the films at temperatures from room temperature to 450°C in high vacuum, low vacuu...
