摘要:
A cold cathode closed drift ion source is provided with segregated gas flow. A first gas may be caused to flow through or along a path around a peripheral portion of an anode so as to pass through the electric gap between the anode and cathode. A second gas (different from the first gas) may be caused to flow toward the ion emitting slit, without much of the second gas having to pass through the electric gap(s). If it is desired to utilize a gas which produces insulative material (e.g., an organosilicon gas), this gas may be used as the second gas. Accordingly, insulative material buildup in the electric gap between the anode and cathode may be reduced, and changes in beam chemistry can be achieved without unduly altering ion beam characteristics.

There is provided a method of making a heat treated (HT) coated article to be used in shower door applications, window applications, or any other suitable applications where transparent coated articles are desired. For example, certain embodiments of this invention relate to a method of making a coated article including a step of heat treating a glass substrate coated with at least a layer of or including diamond-like carbon (DLC) and an overlying protective film thereon. In certain example embodiments, the protective film may be of or include both (a) an oxygen blocking or barrier layer, and (b) a release layer. Following and/or during heat treatment (e.g., thermal tempering, or the like) the protective film may be removed. Other embodiments of this invention relate to the pre-HT coated article, or the post-HT coated article.

For example, certain embodiments of this invention relate to a method of making a coated article including a step of heat treating a glass substrate coated with at least a layer of or including diamond-like carbon (DLC) and an overlying protective film (e.g., of or including zinc oxide) thereon. In certain example embodiments, the protective film may be ion beam treated with at least carbon ions. It has been found that the ion beam treatment improves the shelf-life of the product prior to HT. Following and/or during heat treatment (e.g., thermal tempering, or the like), the protective film may be removed.

In certain example embodiments, a coated article includes a Zn-doped zirconium based layer before heat treatment (HT). The coated article is heat treated sufficiently to cause the Zn-doped zirconium based layer to transform into a Zn-doped zirconium oxide based layer that is scratch resistant and/or chemically durable. The doping of the layer with Zn has been found to improve scratch resistance and/or corrosion resistance.

A substrate is coated with a layer(s) or coating(s) that includes, for example, amorphous carbon in a form of diamond-like carbon (DLC). The DLC is then subjected to flame pyrolysis in order to cause the contact angle θ thereof to decrease.

The invention provides a thermal print head with a protective coating of silicon-doped diamond-like carbon (Si-DLC) which imparts superior wear resistance, and improved lifetime. The Si-DLC is comprised of the elements C, H, Si and possibly O, N and Ar. The highly wear and abrasion-resistant Si-DLC diamond-like carbon coating is deposited by ion-assisted plasma deposition including direct ion beam deposition and capacitive radio frequency plasma deposition, from carbon-containing and silicon-containing precursor gases consisting of hydrocarbon, silane, organosilane, organosilazane and organo-oxysilicon compounds, or mixtures thereof. The resulting Si-DLC coating has the properties of Nanoindentation hardness in the range of approximately 10 to 35 GPa, thickness in the range of approximately 0.5 to 20 micrometers, dynamic friction coefficient of less than approximately 0.2, and a silicon concentration in the range of approximately 5 atomic % to approximately 40 atomic %. Optimum performance is obtained when the Si-DLC coating hardness is in the range of approximately 15 to 35 GPa, preferably in the range of about 15 GPa to about 19 GPa, and the Si-DLC layer thickness is in the range of approximately 2 micrometers to approximately 10 micrometers, dynamic friction coefficient of less than approximately 0.15, and a silicon concentration in the range of approximately 10 atomic % to 30 atomic %, preferably in the range of about 15 atomic percent to about 24 atomic percent.
