Undoped diamond-like carbon thin films grown by direct current-plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition: structural and electrical properties

Undoped diamond - like carbon thin films have been grown by DC - PECVD system. The synthesis of the DLC films was carried out in the presence of gas of (CH4 + H2 + Ar) in a custom - made reactor. The substrate temperature was initiated from the range of 300 °C to 600 °C under an optimum pressurized...
