摘要
A high growth rate fabrication of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films at room temperature was achieved by helicon wave plasma chemical vapor deposition (HWP-CVD) using Ar/CH4 gas mixtures. The microstructure and morphology of the films were characterized by Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The diagnosis of plasma excited by a helicon wave was measured by optical emission spectroscopy and a Langmuir probe. The mechanism of high growth rate fabrication for DLC films by HWP-CVD has been discussed. The growth rate of the DLC films reaches a maximum value of 54 mu mh(-1) at the CH4 flow rate of 85 sccm, which is attributed to the higher plasma density during the helicon wave plasma discharge. The CH and H-alpha radicals play an important role in the growth of DLC films. The results show that the H-alpha radicals are beneficial to the formation and stabilization of C=C bond from sp(2) to sp(3).
