| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 6827977 | Method of making window unit including diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating A method of making a coated article (e.g., window unit), and corresponding coated article are provided. A layer of or including diamond-like carbon (DLC) is formed on a glass substrate. Then, a protective layer is formed on the substrate over the DLC inclusive layer... | 12/07/2004 |
| 5643637 | Method of grading the electric field of an electrode A method is described for grading the electrical field at the surface of an electrode by depositing a semiconductive coating thereon. An electrode substrate is powered at a preselected temperature and power. A mixture of gases is then passed through an el... | 07/01/1997 |
| 5624718 | Diamond-like carbon based electrocatalytic coating for fuel cell electrodes The present invention provides a low-temperature method for producing electrocatalytic coatings for fuel cell electrodes. The electrocatalytic coating comprises a thin-film of diamond-like carbon doped with finely-dispersed catalytic agent, preferably pla... | 04/29/1997 |
| 5605759 | Physical vapor deposition of diamond-like carbon films A process for forming diamond like films of carbon on substrates at room temperature using physical vapour deposition. A source of carbon is physically ablated in the vicintity of a substrate to deposit on the substrate all forms of carbon. A physical dis... | 02/25/1997 |
| 5547714 | Ion beam deposition of diamond-like carbon films A process forms an amorphous carbon film over a solid, which film has physical and chemical properties similar to those of diamond. Its ancillary objects are the solid bodies so coated and the self-sustained film obtained in a subsequent stage of dissolut... | 08/20/1996 |
| 5352493 | Method for forming diamond-like nanocomposite or doped-diamond-like nanocomposite films The present invention relates to the formation of a class of nanocomposite amorphous materials consisting of interpenetrating random networks of predominantly sp3 bonded carbon stabilized by hydrogen, glass-like silicon stabilized by oxygen and random net... | 10/04/1994 |
| 5055318 | Dual ion beam ballistic alloying process The invention relates to a low temperature, dual beam vacuum deposition process for forming a hard, stress reduced, ballistically alloyed film such as diamond onto a substrate.... | 10/08/1991 |
| 4992298 | Dual ion beam ballistic alloying process The invention discloses a dual ion beam ballistic alloying process for forming a film such as diamond onto a substrate, which comprises the steps of: (a) cleaning the surface of the substrate with a first energy beam of inert atoms; (b) depositing a layer... | 02/12/1991 |
