چکیده

In this study, the effect of silver clusters deposition was investigated on optical, wettability and surface properties of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films. Silver clusters and DLC films were deposited on Ni-Cu (۷۰.۴-۲۹.۶;W/W) alloy substrates by ion beam sputtering deposition (IBSD) technique. Optical and structural properties were measured using UV-visible spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. The wettability and surface free energy of films were determined by the contact angle (CA) measurements. Raman spectra of DLC thin film with ۱۲۱±۶nm thickness without accumulated Ag showed that the size of the graphite crystallites with sp ۲ bands (La) was ۳.۳۶Å by the ID/IG ratio equal to ۰.۰۶۲ with large optical band gap equal ۳eV extracted from Tauc relation. The results of the deposition Ag in the various ion beam energy between ۰.۶ to ۲keV showed the Ag clusters were accumulated uniformity on the surface of DLC films at ۰.۹keV.  The volume percentage of silver clusters was varied from ۵.۰±۲.۰۱ to ۱۶.۳±۱.۴. The variation was caused by controlling the screen voltage and the deposition time. The CA of the deposited films increases from ۷۹°±۲ to ۹۵°±۲ as well as the reflection values in the visible and near-infrared region due to the increase in the Ag concentration in the surface of DLC films; while the surface free energy decrease from ۸۶±۱ to ۶۶±۲mJ/m۲  and the optical transmittance is almost constant. Our results demonstrate that the deposition of silver particles on DLC films is potentially useful for biomedical applications having good hydrophobic characteristics without causing a destructive effect on the optical properties of DLC films.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
