Abstract
Abstract The optical transmission of an amorphous, carbonaceous film having diamond-like properties is enhanced by the ion implantation thereof with carbon ions. The film preferably is between about 30 and 110 nanometers in thickness and is implanted with a dosage of between about 1012 and 1014 carbon ions per square centimeter.
