Popis: Amorphous hydrogenated carbon films are deposited by direct ion beam deposition onto Si and W substrates at room temperature. Simultaneously, the sample surface composition is measured by Auger electron spectroscopy. The results indicate a sharp interface between film and Si and the formation of a W2C layer between film and W. The in-situ measurements are compared with sputter depth profiles. It is found that the former ones give insight into film growth processes, that is unattainable by sputter profiling.
