Abstract :
Ions implantation is a process which consists in a modification of the superficial composition of the materials. One particular application consists in providing antistatic properties to polymers. We present three wires surface resistance measurements on ions implanted polycarbonate (PC). An investigation has been realized using different doses and different gaseous elements (N, He, Ar) for the ion beam generation. A strong decrease of surface resistance has been observed depending on the dose and the polymer.
