Benefits of technology

This technology improves upon previous methods by making them better at handling certain types of data that were previously difficult or challenging for these techniques.

Problems solved by technology

This patents describes different ways to prepare films made from diamonds like Carbon Film or Diameter Films called CNTs. These techniques have several technical benefits over physical vapour deposition processes but they also require expensive facilities and produce poor quality results due to stresses caused during manufacturing process steps. To address this problem, certain studies suggest adding an intermediate layer onto the surface before making layers instead of directly attaching them afterwards. However, these modifications may result in weakened adhesion strength when combined together leading to reduced durability and increased failure rates under cyclic load conditions.

preparation example Construction

[0037] In one embodiment, a kind of preparation method of diamond-like carbon film, comprises the steps:

[0038] Preparing a metal carbide transition layer on the substrate;

[0039] By performing the PECVD process and the PVD process simultaneously, a metal W-doped DLC transition layer is formed on the metal carbide transition layer, wherein the control pulse bias voltage is gradually increased, and the WC target current is gradually decreased, so that the metal W-doped DLC The transition layer gradually transitions from metal W as the main body to DLC as the main body from the inside to the outside;

[0040] A DLC layer is formed on the metal W-doped DLC transition layer by PECVD.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, the preparation method of the diamond-like film may include the following steps:

[0042] Step 1. Multi-arc ion cleaning: put the workpiece in the vacuum chamber, start vacuuming, turn on the heater at the same time, set the temperature in the furnace, and when t...

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin film and the DLC thin film prepared by using the preparation method. The method comprises the following steps: S3, preparing a metal carbide transition layer on a base material; S4, forming a metal W-doped DLC transition layer on the metal carbide transition layer by carrying out a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) process and a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process at the same time, wherein pulse bias voltage is controlled to gradually rise, and WC target current is controlled to gradually decrease, so that the metal W-doped DLC transition layer has a gradual transition from taking metal W as a main body to taking DLC as the main body from inside to outside; S5, adopting a PECVD method to form the DLC layer on the metal W-doped DLC transition layer. The preparation method improves the binding force between the DLC layer and the surface of the base material while reducing the production cost.
