Abstract
In the present work, thin carbon films and nanofibers of different morphologies were obtained by magnetron sputtering on a modernized VUP-2 unit. Information of vibrational properties of carbon films and nanofilaments was obtained by Raman spectroscopy. Carbon nanofilaments were obtained in the G band region 1580-1595 cm-1, which is in good agreement with the known literature data. Apparently, the most fascinating results were achieved when steel-3 was used as a substrate. This is probably due to the presence of carbon in steel-3, which serves as a condensation center for the formation of carbon structures, including carbon tubes. The study of amorphous films and their applications in diverse industries constitutes a significant area of scientific research, and this article offers an overview of synthesis methods and potential material applications.
