MeV-ion beam analysis of the interface between filtered cathodic arc-deposited a-carbon and single crystalline silicon

Amorphous carbon (a-C) films were deposited on Si(1 0 0) wafers by a filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA) plasma source. A negative electrical bias was applied to the silicon substrate in order to control the incident energy of carbon ions. Effects of the electrical bias on the a-C/Si interface chara...
