Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and analytic TEM were used to study the microstructure of amorphous carbon (a-C) films of thickness in the range of 5–100 nm deposited on Si(100) by radio-frequency (rf) sputtering. High-resolution cross-section TEM revealed a two-layer structure consisting of the a-C film and an ultrathin interface layer, in agreement with electron energy loss spectroscopy results. The presence of a 35-Å-thick interface layer (regardless of the deposition conditions) indicates that nucleation and initial growth of the a-C films were mainly controlled by the substrate sur
