Abstract A large area diamond-like carbon films were synthesized on P type Si(100) substrates, ranged in 300 mm×100 mm matrix, by an advanced linear ion beam system using the precursor gas of acetylene. Effect of substrate negative bias on the microstructure and properties of DLC films were investigated by Raman spectroscopy, stress tester and nano-indenter respectively. The tribological behavior of films was also investigated by a homemade ball-on-disk tribometer. With increasing the bias from 0 to 300 V, the G-peak position of the Raman spectra decreased firstly and then increased. A lowest value was acquired at the bias voltage of −100 V, which represented the highest sp3 fraction in the DLC films. The highest residual stress, hardness and Youngs modulus films of were also observed when the negative bias voltage was −100 V, respectively. The DLC films deposited with bias voltage 300 V showed the largest wear rate than the others.
