Description

New technology for carbon film deposition is presented. The carbon film is condensing from carbon plasma generated by a thermionic vacuum arc with carbon anode. Carbon film is bombarded during deposition by energetic carbon ions at fixed energy. High purity, hydrogen free and nanostructured layers are obtained the characteristic size of structures being in the order of few nanometers (Authors)
