To accomplish three-dimensional deposition of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films on metal substrates by electrodeposition, stainless steel substrates with various sizes were selected as cathode for electrodeposition. The chemical composition, microstructure, and surface morphologies of the films on both surfaces of the substrates were characterized by X-ray photoelectron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results indicated that for the stainless steel with a larger size than anode, the DLC film can be deposited on the surface facing the anode only, but for the stainless steel with a smaller size than anode, the DLC films can be deposited on both surfaces of the substrates. Further investigations revealed that the films on both surfaces show similar microstructures and morphologies. The quasi-static electric field theory was utilized to discuss the experimental results, proposing that the existence of electric field component vertical to substrate surface is the prerequisite of the electrodeposition of the DLC films. The results furnish theorial foundation for the further realization of three-dimensional deposition of DLC films on conductive substrates with complex shapes. © 2016, Materials Review Magazine.
