Summary: | The characteristics of sputtered amorphous diamond-like carbon-containing copper (DLC: Cu films) films deposited on Si (100) substrates and Si (111) in argon gas-filled chamber using carbon target under different substrates deposition time, and RF power. The samples were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering and analyzed using Raman spectroscopy and X-ray reflectivity (XRR) methods. Different parameters of depositions were used to study the structure, thickness, roughness, and density of the samples. The Cu preliminary layer act as a catalyst to growth the DLC thin-film analyzed using XRR analysis to measure thickness, roughness, and density of the thin films. The film structures of the samples were analyzed using Raman spectroscopy with a 532nm laser source. Gaussian peak shapes were used in Raman spectrum fitting to analyzed to measure the D band and G band for both samples. The Films thickness, roughness, and mass density were studied by XRR techniques using XRD to acquire the multilayer structure of thin films grown by magnetron sputtering. |
