Modification of hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon (DLC) is presented, with acrylic acid (AA) vapor carried into a vacuum chamber by argon and with the in situ assistance of low-power radio frequency (RF) plasma at a temperature below 100°C. Measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique, the roughness (Ra) of the DLC was 1.063±0.040 nm. XPS and FT-IR spectra analysis showed that carboxyl groups were immobilized on the surface of the DLC films, with about 40% of carboxyl group area coverage. It was found that the RF plasma and reaction time are important in enhancing the modification rate and efficiency.

Al doped Er2O3 films were deposited on Si(001) substrates by radio frequency magnetron technique. X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy show the Al doped Er2O3 films obtained are amorphous and uniform. The optical constants are studied which shows a proper value of refractive index and a lower reflectivity, indicating it could be a usefully material for solar cells.
