Depth-resolved study of hydrogen-free amorphous carbon films on stainless steel

A method to obtain depth-resolved structural information from hydrogen-free amorphous carbon films of high roughness, high thickness and grown on unpolished substrates was developed. The characterization was based on combining secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) sputtering for craters at defined...
