Ld. Wang et al., STRUCTURE-ANALYSIS OF TEFLON-LIKE THIN-FILMS SYNTHESIZED BY ION-BEAM SPUTTERING DEPOSITION, Materials letters, 33(1-2), 1997, pp. 77-78
Teflon-like thin films were synthesized by ion beam sputtering a teflo
n target and their structures were studied by XPS and FT-IR. XPS showe
d that the films consisted mainly of CF, bonds, a few C-C bonds and C-
H bonds; FT-IR indicated that the absorption peaks of the thin films c
onsisted of the strongest absorption peak of C-F and the characteristi
c absorption peaks of teflon. These structural characteristics of the
thin films correspond to the molecular structure of teflon. (C) 1997 E
