Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of diamond-like carbon
TL;DR: In this paper, the preparation and properties of amorphous carbon and hydrogenated amorphized carbon, often known as diamond-like carbon, have been discussed and models of the electronic structure and mechanical properties are used to relate the physical properties to the atomic structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hard amorphous (diamond-like) carbons
TL;DR: In this paper, a chemical bonding model is developed which describes the arrangement of these sites and which accounts for many of the electronic and mechanical properties of amorphous carbon, including elastic modulus, hardness, wear rate, friction and film adhesion.
