Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the deposition of mechanically and thermodynamically stable amorphous carbon layers and to a layer system with a carrier substrate and a carbon layer deposited thereon.
- thermosensitive functional components are to be provided with a biocompatible, wear-resistant and multifunctional surface.
- Amorphous carbon layers which are characterized by a homogeneous, dense and stable network, are produced according to the prior art using low-pressure plasma deposition processes, for example PVD, PE-CVD or CVD processes.
- low-pressure plasma deposition processes for example PVD, PE-CVD or CVD processes.
- the prerequisite for the coating of very sensitive and complex components is the use of a coating process that allows layer deposition at very low temperatures. Only PE-CVD and combined PVD / PE-CVD processes are suitable for this.
- PVD, PE-CVD or CVD processes are described in detail, for example, in the VDI lexicon "Electronics and Microelectronics", edited by Dieter Sautter and Hans Weinerth, VDI-Verlag, 1990, p. 666 and p. 753-754. The disclosure content of this document is included in full in the present application.
- the temperature increase during the coating depends on the energy and the current density of the ions arriving on the substrate, as well as on material-specific properties of the substrate material, such as thermal capacity and thermal conductivity.
- a first object of the invention is to provide a coating method which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art, but in particular minimizes the temperature increase when the layers are applied.
- the temperature rise in a time interval of 90 s is calculated as follows:
- the coating process is accordingly higher for plastics.
- the mechanical properties of the layer system are a measure of the stability of an amorphous hydrocarbon network.
- the "random covalent network” (RCN) or constraint modelL is suitable for describing the mechanical properties such as hardness and elastic modulus of stable a-C: H layers. Phillips J.C. J. Non Cryst. Solids 51 (1979) 1355 and Thorpe M.F.J. Non Cryst. Solids 57 (1983) 355.
- This model describes the possibilities of deforming the network without loss of energy (bending and elongation forces) depending on the average coordination number of a covalent network.
- Carbon layers that can be described as constraint or even overconstraint in the sense of the RCN model have so far always been deposited at energies above 30 eV. Layer systems separated below these energies have a loose structure, the same thermally vapor-deposited layers or soot and cannot be compared with an FCN system.
- the inventors have now succeeded in using the method according to the invention with an FCN at very low particle energies of around 10 eV per layer-forming particle to separate aC: H system whose E / H ratio is 6, ie the amorphous layer system has a compact structure and is mechanically very stable. It has a hardness of approx. 10 GPa and is extremely mechanically resilient compared to steel (4-7 GPa). In its elastic properties, an elastic modulus of 60 GPa is achieved. This makes this carbon layer ideal for coating highly flexible plastic surfaces.
- a high-frequency excited, directed plasma with a high degree of ionization (approx. 25%) was generated and extracted into a process chamber.
- Acetylene (C 2 H 2 ) with a working pressure of 2 * 10 "3 mbar was used as the process gas.
- the high-frequency power was inductively coupled in and was between 150 and 300 watts.
- the layers according to the invention were deposited in a volume shaded geometrically by the primary plasma, which was described above, in which a secondary plasma is generated.
- the C2H2 + ions used for coating have an average kinetic energy in the range of less than or equal to 20 eV, ie the average kinetic energy per deposited C atom is at most 10 eV. Only low-energy ions reach the surface to be coated, which means that the thermal load on the component to be coated is negligible during this PE-CVD process. An increase in temperature of the surface due to the electrons in the quasi-neutral plasma beam is additionally greatly reduced with this arrangement.
- the dissociation energy of the CH 2 + ions released during layer formation additionally supports the formation of a dense amorphous network at low kinetic particle energies.
- an atomically dense amorphous network is obtained from layer thicknesses of 5 nm.
- the optical properties are of particular interest.
- the inventors have now for the first time succeeded in producing deposited layers with an optical gap of 2.2 eV even at very low kinetic energies. These layers have a low absorption in the visible wavelength range. For layer thicknesses of 5 nm, the optical transmission in the wavelength range from 900 to 400 nm is constantly over 80%. For layers with 8 times the thickness (40nm), the transmission is only reduced to 60%. With suitable layer thicknesses, the layers produced using the described method can be described as optically transparent.
- the layers described here are particularly interesting for the coating of temperature-sensitive components in which the surface to volume ratio is large.
- these layers find a wide range of applications, particularly in medicine, since they can be deposited on any material with the properties described above.
- These carbon layers are relatively elastic and have the advantage, for example in medical applications, that they can follow the movements of the implant without the risk of cracks forming or the layer flaking off. This combination of hardness and elasticity, the very low coating temperature and the biocompatibility already proven in the first experiments open up new application possibilities in medical technology.
- proteins are adsorbed immediately after contact with an implant surface. Protein adsorption can result in cell adsorption, which can lead to the formation of thick and physiologically questionable layers. This process is a major problem, particularly in the case of implants in contact with blood.
- materials can be used as implant materials. Amorphous carbon layers are largely neutral and show low adhesive forces. The consequence of this is that the adsorption of biological substances is reduced and thus the time that coated implants are used in the body can be extended, or a generally greater acceptance of the implant in the body is achieved.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a layer system for use in the field of biology, bioanalytics, medicine and pharmacy, which decouples a substrate or a carrier with a diffusion barrier from the environment.
- the inventors have now found that layer systems with a carbon layer deposited on the carrier substrate are outstandingly suitable for this. However, these layers need not be deposited using the method according to the invention as claimed in claim 1.
- the only decisive factor for the layer is that it decouples the substrate from the environment as a diffusion barrier. This is particularly important, for example, in the case of cell culture dishes, petri dishes, multiwell plates, microtiter plates, glass vessels and catheters which are used in the field of biology Bioanalytics, medicine or pharmacy are used.
- cell culture dishes In cell culture dishes, there is also an interaction between the substrate and the cells placed in the dish, which can influence cell development.
- the interactions between substrate and cells could be reduced significantly.
- amorphous carbon layers Another possibility of using amorphous carbon layers is the coating of substrates to which an active substance, for example a drug, is applied. Due to the chemical binding mechanisms, the active ingredients of the drug cannot be applied well or permanently to metallic surfaces.
- the use of a biocompatible intermediate layer is mandatory here.
- the biocompatible intermediate layer must both have good adhesion to the substrate, for example the metal support, and at the same time open the possibility of good coupling of the medicinal active substances. This is made possible by the amorphous carbon layer that is applied to the carrier substrate.
- Embodiment 1 (catheter):
- Embodiment 2 (intraocular lenses):
- cataracts intraocular lenses are implanted in the eye as a replacement for the naturally cloudy lens. Complications can occur due to bacterial attachment and increased epithelial cell growth (night star). Initial tests with a special coating of amorphous carbon on acrylic and PMMA lenses show no bacterial adhesion.
- Another advantage is the optical properties of the DLC layers according to the invention with a high hydrogen content. Due to the large optical gap, these layers have a high level of transparency for visible light, while a strong UV is already visible at layer thicknesses of 10 nm. Absorption is observed. Due to the temperature sensitivity of the intraocular lenses used, the coating temperature must be below 50 ° C.
- Embodiment 3 (vascular implants):
- Vascular implants or stents are used for vasoconstriction. In the coronary area, re-narrowing occurs in more than 30% of all cases. An improvement can be achieved by a biocompatible coating of the stents.
- a biocompatible coating should prevent metal ions from diffusing into the body.
- platelet adhesion is reduced on amorphous carbon layers, which leads to a reduction in the risk of thrombosis after stent implantation.
- the DLC layers applied at low temperatures are suitable for such use, in particular because of their high elasticity, the heavy loads caused by the continuous movement in the vessel. They can follow the movements better than prior art layers.
- Embodiment 4 (brachytherapy):
- ionizing radiation to suppress unwanted cell growth (tumor tissue) is well known from cancer therapy.
- brachytherapy radiation sources are implanted in the patient's body for a certain period of time. High radiation doses, a multiple of the lethal dose, are introduced into the target volume. Essentially closed radiation sources are used, the activity is not distributed in the body. Miniaturized implants that emit ionizing radiation can be encased poorly because of the short range, since the encapsulation would already absorb a considerable part of the radiation.
- the casing with a thin, biocompatible, diffusion-tight carbon layer according to the invention offers itself as a solution.
- the implants can be activated on high-flux nuclear reactors.
