Abstract:
A method of making a coated article comprising:providing a glass substrate; heating at least a portion of the glass substrate to a temperature of from about 100-400 degrees C.; and depositing a layer comprising diamond-like carbon (DLC) directly on the glass substrate using an ion beam source and gas comprising carbon and hydrogen in the source, the ion beam source directing an ion beam including carbon ions toward the glass substrate when at least a portion of the glass substrate is at a temperature of from about 100-400 degrees C. so as to form the layer comprising DLC on the glass substrate, wherein at least about 40% of carbon-carbon bonds in the layer comprising DLC that is formed are sp3 carbon-carbon bonds.
