Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films with excellent anti-friction and wear resistance, can
effectively reduce the energy loss of tribosystems and the wear failure of parts, but the high …

Superlubricity is a sliding regime with almost vanishing friction sustained under stringent
material conditions. This remarkable phenomenon was first found between surfaces with …

To explore approaches of reducing graphitization-induced wear on the friction surface of
DLC films under boundary lubrication to increase their service life, Pd nanoparticles …

Excellent tribological properties of hydrogenated amorphous carbon films make it an
important candidate for friction reduction in industry. However, the great challenge of …

Al and N were incorporated into diamond-like carbon (DLC) films deposited using a filtered
cathodic vacuum arc on AISI 4140 low-alloy steel. The structure, nanomechanical …

Hydrogenated Al-doped diamond-like carbon films were prepared in a hybrid plasma
system combines magnetron sputtering and anode layer ion source, which allows …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films (thickness:∼ 118 nm) doped with Al and N on AISI 4140
steel were synthesized using a filtered cathodic vacuum arc technique. The adhesion and …

The present work deals with the study of various properties of aluminum (Al)-incorporated
diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin films synthesized using the atmospheric pressure chemical …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films with weak carbide metal Al and carbide metal Ti co-doping
(Al/Ti-DLC) were prepared by a hybrid ion beam deposition system. The atomic ratios of …

Al-doped diamond-like carbon (DLC) films having various Al contents were fabricated by a
co-sputtering system. The designed Al target power was increased from 10 to 70 W to obtain …
