Melting temperature was the main factor in the preparation process of DLC(Diamond Like Carbon) films. MD (Molecular Dynamics) method was used to simulate the preparation process of DLC films based on the Tersoff potential. The mechanical response and atomic bonding structure of DLC films during nano...
