摘要
Ultraviolet (UV) and visible micro-Raman-scattering spectroscopy were used to study carbon nitride films deposited using an off-plane double-bend-filtered cathodic vacuum-are (FCVA) technique combined with a radiofrequency nitrogen-ion source, which was used to supply active nitrogen species during the deposition of carbon nitride films, The UV Raman spectra can be directly used to determine the sp(3) C atoms in carbon nitride films. Both C-N bonds and C = N bonds can also be observed from the deconvolution results of visible and UV Raman spectra for carbon nitride films. The increase of nitrogen-ion energy leads to a decrease of the sp(3) C fraction, and an increase of the sp(2) C fraction, the sp(2) C cluster size, the C-N bond fraction and the C = N bond fraction in carbon nitride films.
