Diamond-like carbon (DLC) is a type of coating belonging to the class of amorphous carbon films and contains both sp² and sp³ hybridized carbon bonds. Structurally, DLC combines diamond-like properties such as high hardness and chemical inertness with graphite-like characteristics including exceptional lubricity and low coefficient of friction. This structural versatility enables DLC to be used in optical, mechanical, tribological, and biomedical applications. DLC films are classified based on t
