In this study the surface of UHMWPE samples was treated by 1 keV N, H and He fast atom bombardment (FAB) to obtain amorphous carbon surface layer which produces an enhancement of microhardness. The untreated and FAB-modified samples were investigated by photoluminescence, infrared, Raman and optical absorption spectroscopy. The FAB-treatment caused a nearly complete disappearance of the characteristic luminescence bands of UHMWPE (at 335, 351, 363 and 381 nm), the appearance of new bands at 459 and 495 nm due to the formation of new recombination levels in the FAB-treated samples. The remarkable decrease in integrated luminescence intensity indicates the appearance of new non-radiative recombination levels caused by FAB treatment. Structural modifications in FAB treated samples result in the development of structural arrangement containing sp2 bonded carbon sites in rings or chains of different sizes and the electronic levels corresponding to these structural elements are situated in the forbidden gap in the electronic density of states which brings forth the observed changes of the photoluminescence properties. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

The capacitance of the electrodes was calculated from the charge-discharge characteristics. Aluminium foil served as the current collector. The active material was laid on it by the spraying technique. The best adherence of the compound to the foil was achieved by the solution of hexamethylenediamine (HMDA), glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in isopropanol. However, this binding mixture caused a loss in the capacitance because after the polymerization, it obstructs the pores of the carbon black, thus decreasing the active surface of the capacitor. To compensate this, plasma-prepared carbon nano-clusters were introduced into the capacitor electrode matrix, because this material has a large polarizability. The effect of the amorphous carbon nano-particle content of the prepared electrodes on the capacitance was studied. The maximal capacitance was obtained when the active material contained 30 wt.% of carbon nano-particles. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.

An intense band appears in the PLE spectrum at excitation photon energies below optical gap and the other band of a much weaker intensity compared to the low energy peak can be observed for excitations in the vicinity of band-to-band optical transitions. The low energy band of the PLE spectrum exhibits resonance features and its peak position is in a close relation with the energy of the photoluminescence (PL) band maximum; that is when the PLE maximum corresponding to the blue PL band is shifted to higher photon energy relatively to that of the green PL band. In contrast to this behavior the high energy band maximum of PLE appears, practically at the same photon energy for both the green and the blue bands measured in the same a-C:H sample. In the framework of the luminescence mechanism for a-C:H the observed characteristic features of PLE spectra is explained by optical excitation inside the luminescence centers, at which spatial confinement of the electron hole pairs takes place and by optical transitions in the neighborhood of the luminescence centers to a some extended states as well. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Carbon free silver colloid served as SERS active medium; it was dried on the sample surface. The Raman signal amplitude increase by order of magnitude was observed. Further enhancement was recorded on the Raman spectrum as a result of the blinking phenomenon, which took place applying certain measurements conditions. A number of reproducible peaks was observed in the D and G band region both for a-C:H and a-C. Coexistence of these peaks in one sample's spectrum indicates that the amorphous carbon D and G peaks consist of several components: they are inhomogeneously broadened. For a given amorphous carbon sample the shape of the conventional Raman spectrum is determined by vibrations of dominant structural units. SERS gives the possibility to identify these units; moreover, presence of other components, not so characteristic for the sample, also can be evaluated. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.

In a typical SERS experiment the investigated material is in the liquid phase. For studying a solid sample, such as graphite, we put colloidal silver droplets on its surface, and let them dry. The dried colloid drops provide a strongly inhomogeneous lateral distribution of silver clusters. The pattern can be described as domains with different enhancement levels and hot spots. The increased SERS intensity was accompanied by increased spectral resolution, but with some unusual fluctuations. The SERS process on graphite seems to be an unstable one. The fluctuations suggest that the graphite Raman spectrum is inhomogeneously broadened whereby some components are selected and enhanced more strongly than the rest of the spectrum. These enhanced spectral bands are selected by some specific interaction between one of the metal clusters and the carbon surface structure. It is hard to determine at present whether these spectral components are constant, attached to certain frequencies, corresponding to definite structural units; or are distributed continuously in frequency. The physical process behind the temporal fluctuations is probably the structural variability in the silver clusters under intense illumination. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.
