Summary: Continuous and modulated c‐C 4 F 8 (perfluorocyclobutane) plasmas were used to deposit thin Teflon‐like films. Gas phase and film composition and structure were investigated and the results can be rationalized with the deposition mechanism developed in a previous work for C 2 F 4 ‐modulated plasmas. The effect of modulation on the morphology and the chemistry of the surface were studied.CF x percentages as a function of the duty cycle for films deposited for 90 min from modulated discharges sustained at 100 W, 300 mtorr, and 6 sccm.
