| Abstract: | Nano-crystalline
silver was embedded in diamond-like-carbon films by capacitatively coupled
plasma chemical vapour deposition. Films with different nanocrystallite sizes
and volume fractions of silver, deposited on glass and silicon (100) substrates
have been studied by nano-indentation to evaluate the modulation of mechanical
properties caused by silver incorporation into the diamond-like-carbon. Raman,
atomic force microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray studies and X-ray diffractions
have been utilized to determine the structural properties as well as the
bonding environment in these films. Mechanical properties have been seen to be
modulated significantly by nanocrystalline silver incorporation. |
