Abstract: | Diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin films were fabricated by the ablation of frozen acetone with a 790 nm, 130 fs Ti:sapphire laser. Compared to a solid carbon target, frozen acetone could significantly reduce the number of fragments mixed into the films. The optical and mechanical properties of the fabricated DLC films were determined when the laser fluence was varied from 3 to 470 J/cm2. With the increase in laser fluence, the films tinged with brown and the optical bandgap of the films decreased from 2.0 to 1.2 eV. Also, the refractive index and hardness of the films increased from 1.75 to 1.99 and from 10 to 16 GPa, respectively. The sp3 content was not changed even if the laser fluence was varied. The change in properties resulted from the hydrogen content of the films. PACS 81.05.Uw; 81.15.Fg |
