Book excerpt: Diamond like carbon (DLC) films have gained grounds in the biomedical field as an inert, biocompatible, low friction and wear resistant coating and are widely used in heart valves, coronary artery stents, dental implants, knee prosthesis and other vascular devices. In addition, Ag nanoparticles/films can prevent the formation of biofilm on biomedical implants by degrading the metabolic activities like permeability and respiration and also impair DNA replicability. Thus, Ag-doped DLC (Ag-DLC) can serve as a multifunctional bio coating combining desirable antibacterial and physical/mechanical characteristics. In the present study, Ag-DLC films were synthesized utilizing a hybrid Plasma CVD and Magnetron sputtering process in a CH4/Ar glow discharge. Nanocomposite films containing Ag nanoparticles in an amorphous DLC matrix with various amounts of Ag were synthesized and characterized by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). Tribological experiments were performed to assess the frictional behavior and wear resistance of the Ag-DLC films as a function of Ag content. Anodic polarization experiments were conducted to characterize the electrochemical behavior of the Ag-DLC films. TEM results revealed that Ag nanoparticles of 4-7 nm in size were uniformly distributed in an amorphous DLC matrix. Microhardness of DLC films exhibited a hardness of 22 GPa and it gradually decreased with increasing Ag content in the films. Wear rate of DLC film was 1.9 x 10-8 mm3/Nm and it increased to 8 x 10-7 mm3/Nm for Ag-DLC (5% Ag) film. Electrochemical behavior experiments showed that Ag-DLC films exhibited an inert behavior compared to the pure silver.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin films were produced by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on silicon, fused silica, and silicon nitride substrates. The films produced were either undoped, made using a pure graphite target, or doped, using multi-component targets made from a combination of graphite and silicon, silicon nitride, titanium dioxide, or silicon monoxide. These films were evaluated for their potential use in biomedical applications, including coatings for artificial joints, heart stents, and bronchoscopes. The films were characterized by Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, ball-on-flat tribometry, contact angle measurements, and spectrophotometry. Film thickness was determined by optical profilometry. Film adhesion was checked by soaking the films in simulated body fluid (SBF) and monitoring the quality of the film surface at varying time intervals using an optical microscope. DLC coatings were produced with a root mean square surface roughness of less than 1 nm and a 0.08 lubricated coefficient of friction. Contact angles of water on the undoped films varied with deposition conditions, ranging from 65 to 88 degrees. Contact angles as low as 25 degrees were achieved by incorporating silicon monoxide dopant. DLC coatings were produced on fused silica having high transparency and showing no delamination after forty-three weeks of immersion in SBF. These results indicate that these films have potential as biomedical coatings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diamond-like carbon thin films are been used in wide range of applications due to their attractive tribological properties. Metal-doped DLC films have significant properties which make them compatible to use in larger variety of applications. The present study examines the dispersion and their effect on various tribological properties when Ag is incorporated into the DLC thin films. These Ag-DLC nanocomposite films were synthesized by a hybrid CVD and magnetron sputtering process in a discharge composed of CH4, and Ar atmosphere. These DLC and Ag-DLC films were characterized by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman Spectroscopy. Tribological tests were carried out to measure the frictional and wear behavior of the Ag-DLC films as a function of Ag content. The TEM cross sectional studies revealed that Ag is present as Ag nanoparticles that were distributed uniformly throughout an amorphous DLC matrix. XPS analysis confirmed that Ag in the nanoparticles was present in the metallic form. Increasing the Ag content in the film, reduced its sp3 content. The incorporation of these nanoparticles causes a reduction in hardness in Ag-DLC when compared with pure DLC films. Microhardness of DLC films exhibits values up to a maximum of 16 GPa and gradually decreases with increasing in Ag content. FTIR and Raman studies confirmed that the films contain a significant amount of hydrogen, and with an increase in the Ag content in the DLC film results in an increase in sp2 carbon content. Finally, the friction behavior of the Ag-DLC films showed a comparable performance with that of DLC films with a coefficient of friction as low as 0.1. The DLC films exhibited a lower wear rate of 5.51x10−8 mm3/Nm than Ag-DLC films. The wear rate in the Ag-DLC films gradually increased with increasing Ag content but it remained at low levels (i.e., up to 1.7x10−7 mm3/Nm). This is consistent with the higher sp2 content of the Ag-DLC films.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present thesis is the result of 15 years of continues efforts. The research work started in 1991 and has been completed by a final publication in 2005. The content of the thesis is composed of introductory parts (giving the reader an introduction into the later to be discussed subject) and articles published by the author. At this point the author would like to draw the attention to the fact that, due to the rather lengthy process of completion of the presented thesis, the references in the first chapters have not been updated with recent new publications on the subjects discussed and therefore reflect the knowledge state at the time the articles were written. The key subject of the thesis is carbon materials. In order to initiate the reader into the subject to be discussed in the publications of the author, introductory chapters are found at the beginning of the present document. In the first chapter an historical overview on diamond and DLC is given. The history of diamond, starting with natural diamond and continuing with man made diamonds, is treated and examples of applications of diamond are described. Equally the history of Raman spectroscopy, an analysing method intensively used by the author, is presented. After the historic introduction, more technical background information is offered on the following subjects: carbon structure and properties ; Raman spectroscopy ; Diamond & DLC deposition methods Following these introductory chapters the scientific work accomplished by the author is presented. This is done introducing the different scientific articles published by the author. The first article deals with the deposition of diamond using the acetylene flame method. The key innovation presented by the author in this article is the use of a turbulent flame configuration, as the first researcher in this field, which allows for a quicker growth rate of the diamond deposit. The second article demonstrates the influence of flame turbulence on the growth of m.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diamond thin films are deposited on silicon wafers by MPECVD process with the presence of methane, argon, and hydrogen gases. The reaction chamber is designed with an internal microwave reaction cavity and a high-pressure pocket for improving deposition conditions. Scanning electron microscopy reveals tetrahedral and cauliflower-shaped crystals for polycrystalline diamond and nanocrystalline diamond films, respectively. Spectroscopy ellipsometer studies indicate that diamond-like carbon (DLC) films are deposited with a thickness of 700 nm. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy shows C-H stretching in the range from 2800 cm -1 to 3000 cm -1 . Nanoindentation is performed on DLC films with an average hardness of 10.98 GPa and an average elastic modulus of 90.32 GPa. The effects of chamber pressure, microwave forward power, and gas mixture on the plasma chemistry are discussed. Substrate temperature has a significant influence on film growth rate, and substrate pretreatment can enhance the quality of diamond films.
