Abstract: |
This paper reviews the latest research and development at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) in Plasma Immersion Ion Deposition (PIID). SwRI has been developing new technologies in plasma surface engineering for practical applications. One of the technologies is the PIID. In recent years, we have focused on high rate deposition of diamondlike carbon (DLC) coatings, thick DLC for improving erosion and corrosion resistance, hydrophobic DLC coatings, and the deposition of the inner surface of long pipes. A particular technique is developed based on the hollow cathode discharge (HCD) plasma process rather than the conventionally used pulsed glow discharge (PGD) process. In this paper, we will discuss the principle of the HCD process, the experimental results of the DLC coatings produced by both the PGD and the HCD processes, and practical applications of these technologies. New research directions will be presented at the end of this paper. |
