The application of carbon nitride as a barrier against copper diffusion was investigated. Amorphous carbon nitride (a-CN) thin films were prepared on Si(100) substrates by rf magnetron sputtering of graphite target in N2 plasma. A thin Cu layer was then deposited in-situ atop of the a-CN film. Annealing process was carried out in nitrogen (N2) ambient at the temperature of 400°C and 600°C respectively. The as-deposited and annealed films were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The measurements show that both sp2C-N and sp3-N bonds were formed in the as-deposited carbon nitride films. The compositional analyses indicate that the deposited a-CN thin film is able to act as an effective diffusion barrier against copper at annealing temperature up to 400°C.

Amorphous carbon nitride coatings of thickness of 5 and 30 nm were deposited onto 65 and 95 mm magnetic thin-film rigid disks surfaces using single-cathode and dual-cathode magnetron sputtering systems containing nitrogen-argon plasmas. Under optimum deposition conditions, amorphous carbon nitride coatings can be synthesized on ultrasmooth thin-film disks with no significant pinholes at thickness down to 5 nm, with hardness 22–28 GPa (compared to 7–12 GPa for amorphous carbon), and r.m.s. roughness as low as 0.25 nm. These amorphous carbon nitride coatings were shown to have better contact-start-stop performance and three-to-four times better pin-on-disk contact durability compared with amorphous carbon overcoats under identical testing conditions. Amorphous carbon nitride appears to be a promising candidate overcoat material for replacing amorphous carbon in the next-generation magnetic thin-film rigid disk systems.

Biological multilayer films of redox polymer and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were successfully assembled on a screen-printed carbon electrode using layer-by-layer (LBL) assembled method based on the electrostatic interaction. The screen-printed carbon electrode surface was modified by the positively charged redox polymer, and the negatively charged HRP by LBL method.
