摘要
Amorphous carbon (a-C) films composited with transition layers exhibit the desirable improvement of adhesion strength between films and substrate, but the further understanding on the interfacial structure transformation of a-C structure induced by transition layers is still lacked. In this paper, using ab initio calculations, we comparatively studied the interfacial structure between Ti, Cr, or W transition layers and a-C film from the atomic scale, and demonstrated that the addition of Ti, Cr, or W catalyzed the graphitic transformation of a-C structure at different levels, which provided the theoretical guidance for designing a multilayer nanocomposite film for renewed application.
