Abstract

See full text

A method of forming a diamond-like carbon film on a substrate arranged in a vacuum chamber includes the steps of generating an arc-discharge plasma current in the vacuum chamber, supplying a reaction gas containing carbon atoms, such as CH.sub.4 gas for example, into the arc-discharge plasma current, applying a high-frequency voltage to the substrate so that a self-bias developed in the substrate is not more than -200 V, and forming a diamond-like carbon film from the reaction gas on the substrate that is supplied with the high-frequency voltage.
