Abstract
A new method for depositing carbon films by the thermal decomposition of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in a hydrogen flux in a reactor for metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) at atmospheric pressure is developed. From the results obtained by Raman spectroscopy, it can be conceived that the carbon layers produced by this method are the disordered nanocrystalline graphite. It is shown that such carbon layers can be used in the technological cycle of the production of gallium-arsenide optoelectronic device structures (among them spin light-emitting diodes with a CoPt injector).
