Different dLc coating types are applied at an industrial scale by sulzer Metco thin Film. The coatings are generated with different coating architecture. Deposition methods are: magnetron sputtering, electron beam evaporation and PA‐cVd. Reactive magnetron sputtering is used to deposit metal containing a‐c:h coatings (a‐c:h:Me), e.g. MAXit W‐ch. Pure a‐c:h coatings as functional top coatings are used for cavidur®, MAXit® AhdLc and special versions of dylyn® coatings. In addition to the pure a‐c:h coatings, doped a‐c:h coatings are also used. The dylyn® family of coatings is comprised of at least one layer a‐c:h:si:O. The dylyn® coatings may be doped with metal (a‐c:h:ti:si:O) to adapt selected properties like electrical conductivity.
