値を示す。The amorphous carbon film 10 has an SP2 structure and an SP2 structure.
3 thought structure are mixed, in the Raman spectrum shown in FIG. 4, and G band near 1550 cm -1 1400
A broad Raman band is observed around the D band near cm -1 . The Raman band around 1400 cm -1 corresponds to one of the peaks of the density of states of lattice vibration, and is interpreted as being caused by relaxation of the wave vector conservation law due to lattice disorder. The intensity ratio, that is, the G / D ratio changes depending on the existence ratio of the SP2 structure and the SP3 structure. Raman band near 1400cm -1 is SP2
A Raman band that increases due to structural disturbances, and a decrease in this band is believed to represent an increase in the SP3 ratio. That is, the G / D ratio shows a large value as the SP3 ratio increases.

By setting the G / D ratio as described above, the amorphous carbon film 10 can have good electric conductivity.

10が電気絶縁体となる。However, when the G / D ratio is less than 0.1, the SP2 property of the amorphous carbon film 10 becomes high, and the quality of the film may be deteriorated and peeling may occur. On the other hand, when the G / D ratio is> 2.0, the SP3 property of the amorphous carbon film 10 is increased, and the film 10 becomes an electric insulator.

In order to increase the electrical conductivity of 0, as in Examples 3 to 7,
It is necessary to set the hydrogen content C H so that 1 at% ≦ C H ≦ 20 at%. On the other hand, in order to improve the peeling resistance of the amorphous carbon film 10, the G / D ratio should be G ≧ D ≧ 0.1.
In consideration of the electrical conductivity of the film 10, it can be said that it is desirable that the G / D ratio ≤ 2.0.
