"Diamond-like carbons (DLCs) display a number of attractive properties that make them versatile coating materials for a variety of applications. Further research into this material is required to produce hydrogen-free DLC films and to synthesize it together with other materials, to obtain better film properties. This book examines emerging manufacturing technologies for DLCs with the aim of improving their properties for use in practical applications. This work is aimed at materials science and engineering researchers, advanced students, and industry professionals"--
