Diamond-like carbon(DLC)films are renowned for their exceptional wear resistance,low friction factor,and high hardness,which have led to their widespread application in the automotive,aerospace,and mechanical manufacturing industries.Various advanced techniques have been developed to control the properties of DLC films and prolong the service lives of mechanical components under wear and corrosion conditions,thereby enhancing their performance.The body of research in this field is continuously being enriched and refined.However,there is a scarcity of comprehensive review papers,which are crucial for guiding the development of the entire industry and academic domain.In response to this need,this study systematically summarizes the existing research on the wear-resistant properties of DLC films from both domestic and international perspectives,focusing on aspects such as preparation technology,process parameter optimization,modification through element doping,gradient construction,and surface texturing.A comprehensive aggregation of the research results strongly suggests that the meticulous adjustment of the process parameters is indispensable for marked enhancements in the hardness and wear resistance of DLC coatings.Element doping can improve the structure and properties of DLC films to achieve high elastic recovery as well as low friction and wear;gradient construction can strengthen the adhesion,hardness,and wear resistance of DLC films;and surface texturing can enhance the tribological performance of DLC films.Therefore,by finely controlling the process parameters,types and contents of doping elements,and design of surface structures,the microstructures of DLC films can be effectively altered to achieve an increase in the wear resistance,a reduction in the friction coefficient and wear rate,and enhanced adhesion,hardness,and wear resistance.These improvements are beneficial for extending the service lives of mechanical components under severe operating conditions.By comprehensively adjusting the manufacturing processes and other strategies for DLC films,this study achieves an overall upgrade in wear-resistant performance,thus filling the void in the industry for a systematic review on the optimization of DLC film properties.The research summarized in this study covers a range of deposition techniques,including physical vapor deposition(PVD),chemical vapor deposition(CVD),and plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition(PECVD),which are vital for achieving the desired film properties.The optimization of process parameters,such as the substrate temperature,deposition pressure,ion energy,and gas flow rates,is discussed,as all these parameters are critical for controlling the structure and performance of the film.The role of element doping in modifying the properties of films is investigated,with a focus on the use of transition metals,rare earth elements,and other alloying agents to enhance certain characteristics of DLC films.Furthermore,the study explores the concept of gradient construction,where the compositions and structures of films are varied throughout their thicknesses to create a gradient that can improve adhesion to the substrate and enhance mechanical properties.The study also addresses surface texturing,which involves the creation of micropatterns on the surface of a film to reduce friction and wear,which is a feature of particular importance for applications in which tribological performance is critical.In conclusion,this study provides a thorough overview of the research and development in DLC film technology by highlighting the key areas that are essential for the advancement of the field.This study underscores the importance of a holistic approach to the design and fabrication of DLC films and emphasizes the interplay among preparation techniques,process optimization,material modification,and surface engineering to achieve superior wear-resistant performance.This comprehensive review is significant in guiding future research and fostering innovation in the application of DLC films across various industries,and it serves as an essential reference for the further development of related technical fields.
