The Molecular Dynamics Simulation on the Diamond-Like Carbon Films

The research and application of the diamond-like carbon films are very extensive since it was found due to the superior properties. Therefore, we had begun to study using molecular simula- tion methods in order to get better properties and explore better structure as early as the 1980s. In this background, the paper describes the development of the case of the diamond-like carbon films' study, and gives a brief summary for the representative study of each period. Then, we point out some of the key issues that the diamond-like simulation faces and give the prospect for its fu- ture development at the end of this paper.
