Abstract
Deposition of diamond-like thin films has been achieved using mass-sep arated C+, CH3+ and CH4+ ion beams of energies between 1 and 40 keV. C haracterization using different methods shows that the structure and p hysical properties of the films obtained are closer to those of diamon d when 30-40 keV CH3+ or CH4+ ion beams are used. The hydrogen concent ration, measured with elastic recoil detection analysis, is lower than 1 at.% for all the 30 keV hydrocarbon beams used.
