Popis: | The formation of carbonitride (CxNy) films in the active and afterglow phases of a glow discharge in CH4-N2 mixtures (as well in these mixtures diluted with argon and helium) was studied experimentally. The dependences of the film growth rate on the discharge current and gas pressure are obtained. The composition (the N/C ratio) and IR absorption spectra of the films are determined. Measurements of the absorption spectra made it possible to identify bonds between C and N atoms. A novel method of carbonitride film deposition in the “double afterglow” mode was proposed. The use of this method appreciably increases the film deposition rate. Possible mechanisms of the formation and destruction of carbonitride films in the active and afterglow phases of the discharge are discussed. |
