TL;DR: In this paper, the surface contact angle with water was investigated as a measure of the surface free energy and anti-sticking properties for nano-imprint lithography, and the most promising combination of the UV absorption and anti staining properties were revealed.

TL;DR: It was found that air annealing of DLC: Ag films can result in graphitization following destruction of the DLC matrix, and additional activation of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effect in DLC:Ag films can be achieved by properly selecting annealed conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the optical properties of hydrogenated diamond like carbon nanocomposite films containing silver nanoparticles (DLC:Ag) deposited by direct current (DC) unbalanced reactive magnetron sputtering were studied in 180-1100nm range.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the substrate bias on structure, chemical composition and piezoresistive properties of DLC:Ag films were investigated, and the relationship between the structure of the deposited films and substrate bias was observed, too.

TL;DR: In this article, the optical properties of a diamond-like carbon (DLC) matrix were investigated for thin films of nanocomposite materials composed of silver nanoparticles embedded in a diamondlike carbon matrix, and the observed redshift and broadening of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) bands were explained using Mie scattering theory and Maxwell-Garnett effective medium theory.
