摘要
The electron and spin structure of thick smooth hydrocarbon CDx films (“flakes”) with a high relative deuterium concentration of x ~ 0.5, redeposited from deuterium plasma discharge onto the walls of the vacuum chamber of the T-10 tokamak and containing ~1 at % of 3d-metal impurities due to erosion of the chamber walls, are studied using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and photoluminescence (PL). The resulting spectra are compared for the first time to the EPR and photoluminescence spectra of polymer (soft) a-C:H(D) films (H(D)/C ~ 0.5), which are considered model analogues of smooth CDx films. A certain similarity of the CDx films with a-C:H films was found in the electronic structure of the valence band. At the same time, the differences in the EPR and photoluminescence spectra were observed due to the presence of 3d-metal impurities in the CDx samples, contributing to the conversion of sp3 → sp2 in the formation of films in the tokamak and upon heating and thermal desorption. An impurity of, presumably, 3d metals was detected for the first time by EPR in the a-C:H films in an amount of approximately 0.2 ppm, related to the evaporation of graphite. © 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
