Abstract
Chromium oxycarbide (Cr2CO) films were deposited on stainless steel and cop per plates via plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition. The films were he ated to 1073 K under high-vacuum conditions, to examine the high-temperatur e stability of the films. X-ray diffractometry revealed that the films deco mposed to a mixed structure of Cr2O3 and Cr3C2. Thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis revealed that the decomposition occurred in the temperature range of 858-910 K.
