However, to fully unlock the distinctive features concealed within carbon composite materials, additional specimen treatments or precise spectroscope calibrations are necessary. In the same regard, the tiny diamond grain size (5–10 nm) and the pronounced amount of <i>sp</i><sup><i>2</i></sup> carbon in the ultrananocrystalline diamond film represent major challenges in visible light excitation. In this work, we employ calibrated oxygen plasma reactive ion etching conditions to manifest the nanodiamond visible Raman signature from ultrananocrystalline diamond/amorphous carbon composite (UNCD/a-C) films fabricated by coaxial arc plasma deposition. Upon plasma etching, the broad defect band in the visible Raman spectra converged toward the diamond characteristic Raman peak at 1332 cm<sup>−1</sup>. A detailed explanation of band components of the Raman spectra is extracted through peak fitting procedures. The results of Raman spectroscopy are further correlated with the electrical characteristics of the nitrogen-doped UNCD/a-C films due to the optimized oxygen plasma etching processes.","PeriodicalId":22062,"journal":{"name":"Surface and Interface Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139657453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contact angle measurements further supported the findings as the thin films with 40% Te content were the most hydrophobic. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results revealed that the major oxidation states of Mo from Te-poor to Te-rich TFs were changed from high (+6) to low (+4 and/or +2). X-ray diffraction data showed that peaks pertaining to molybdenum oxide species appeared, notably at 33.048° and 33.115°. Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and Kelvin probe measurements evinced that the work function increases with increasing Te content.

Traditional contact angle measurements face challenges when applied to intricate surfaces like dental implants. Here, tensiometry applying the Wilhelmy plate method has been described in the last decade to offer one solution for the evaluation of complex surface geometries by quantifying apparent contact angles based on wetting forces. This study evaluates a simple setup employing the Wilhelmy balance concept for immersion angle determination. Instead of using a force sensor as in tensiometers, the wetting force is determined via changes in mass signal by means of an analytical balance available in standard laboratories. The force is thus recorded inverse to conventional tensiometry. The approach was validated on diverse geometries and extended to intricate structures, including plasma-treated dental implants. Results were compared to conventional contact angle analysis systems underlining the reliability of the method in characterizing non-planar and complex surfaces. Additionally, the method was successfully extended to the evaluation of surface energies on planar and non-planar surfaces using various solvent sets. However, results evidenced that specimen geometry can influence the measurements to such an extent that immersion contact angles can no longer be calculated due to capillary effects. An outlook suggests further exploration with a wider range of test liquids to enhance accuracy in surface energy determination.","PeriodicalId":22062,"journal":{"name":"Surface and Interface Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139581407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, amorphous hydrogen‐free carbon (a‐C) film was deposited on the PTFE polymer surface by magnetron sputtering, and the a‐C/PTFE samples were irradiated with gamma ray at a maximum dose of up to 5 MGy. The evolution of the structure and nanomechanical and tribological properties of a‐C/PTFE with different irradiation doses were investigated. The structural analyses reveal that the microstructure of a‐C films irradiated at 5 MGy doses is stable. Due to the covering of the a‐C film, significant cracks appear at the surface of the a‐C/PTFE sample only when the irradiation dose reaches 5 MGy. Before and after irradiation, the nanohardness and Young's modulus of the a‐C/PTFE are significantly higher than those of PTFE. The mechanical properties of PTFE are improved by a‐C film surface treatment. The friction experiments show that the average friction coefficients of both a‐C/PTFE and PTFE remain stable around 0.175 with increasing irradiation dose. When the irradiation dose is within 1 MGy, frictional behaviors occur only on the surface of a‐C films, and the wear rate of a‐C/PTFE is as low as 9.3 × 10−5 mm3/N.m, which is significantly lower than that of PTFE. The method of a‐C film treatment on the PTFE surface can dramatically improve the irradiation resistance of PTFE.","PeriodicalId":22062,"journal":{"name":"Surface and Interface Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139440626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
