Abstract

A method includes imparting energy to a target in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at room temperature to provide a substrate facing the target with a carbonaceous coating that includes nested carbon structures.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An electrode structure, comprising:
 a substrate; and   a carbonaceous coating over the substrate, the carbonaceous coating including nested carbon structures that have outer diameters of 100 nm or greater.   
     
     
         2 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate is insulating. 
     
     
         3 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate is conductive. 
     
     
         4 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes a polymer. 
     
     
         5 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes Silicon (Si). 
     
     
         6 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes glass. 
     
     
         7 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes quartz. 
     
     
         8 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes Indium Tin Oxide (ITO). 
     
     
         9 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes metal. 
     
     
         10 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the substrate includes steel. 
     
     
         11 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the coating is low friction. 
     
     
         12 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the nested carbon structures are onion-shaped. 
     
     
         13 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the nested carbon structures include substantially concentric layers. 
     
     
         14 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the nested carbon structures include five or more layers. 
     
     
         15 . The electrode structure of  claim 1 , wherein the nested carbon structures each include layers formed about a core. 
     
     
         16 . The electrode structure of  claim 15 , wherein the cores include fullerene.
