Abstract
The content of hydrogen and its depth profile in diamond like carbon ( DLC) films deposited by the microwave plasma deposition technique is d etermined by Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis (ERDA) using 85 MeV Ni- 58 ions. Simultaneous defection of hydrogen and carbon recoils provide d a method to determine the relative number of hydrogen:carbon atoms w ithout using a standard H sample for quantitative calibration.
