Physical chemical and Protective Properties of the Diamond-Like Carbon Coatings Synthesized from Separated Plasma of Electric Arc

Abstract— Research of the protective diamond-like carbon coatings by means of IR-spectral ellipsometry method and Raman spectroscopy method were carried out. Diamond-like carbon coefficients, optical constants, specific electric resistances and thicknesses of diamond-like carbon coatings were determined. Research of the mass loss of the samples at the thermovacuum impact also were performed. It is shown, diamond-like carbon coatings have well protective (barrier) properties hindering polymer material degradation in the outer space environment.

Index Terms— diamond-like carbon coatings, protective (gas barrier) properties, electric arc plasma deposition, IR-spectral ellipsometry, Raman spectroscopy, thermovacuum impact, coating thicknesses, optical constants, diamond-like carbon coefficient.
