In the past decade, Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coatings have received great attention essentially<br />

due to their unique properties such as mechanical hardness, adhesion strength and chemical inertness,<br />

and recently in the sensing application, combined with porous silicon. In addition, the same<br />

research group demonstrates an enhancement of the photoluminescence of the porous layer subjected<br />

to a DLC layer deposition.<br />

In this work, we report a study on some optical properties of DLC films. The DLC films have been<br />

deposited by DC discharge plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The deposited layers have<br />

been characterized by spectrophotometry, ellipsometry and FTIR analysis.<br />

The evolution of optical properties for different DLC thickness layers has been correlated with the<br />

FTIR spectra change. In addition, The DLC films have been deposited on multicrystalline solar cell<br />

with a PS film (< 0.3 μm) as an antireflection coating. The results reveal that the solar cell efficiency<br />

strongly depends on the DLC layer thickness. The quantum efficiency of the solar cell coated with a<br />

DLC layer increases by 5% order than the uncoated cell.<br />
