Abstract: Amorphous carbon films [a-C] codoped by two metal elements exhibit the desirable combination of tribological and mechanical properties for widely potential applications, but are also prone to catastrophic failure due to the inevitable residual compressive

Abstract: Cu-containing diamond-like carbon [Cu-DLC] films were deposited on Si/glass substrate by a hybrid ion beam deposition system. The Cu concentration [0.1-39.7 at.%] in the film was controlled by varying the sputtering current. The microstructure and composi

Abstract: Here, we selected Ti, Cr, and Was the representative metal elements to composite with Al atom in order to generate co-doped amorphous carbon [a-C] films using ab initio calculations. Results show that compared with the pure and mono-doped cases, the Ti/Al
