(Received June 5, 2007; accepted September 6, 2007; published online December 6, 2007)

This is the first report on the precise elemental composition of a diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin film fabricated by focused-ion-beam chemical vapor deposition (FIB-CVD). The atomic fraction of the FIB-CVD DLC film has been determined to be C:Ga:H=87.4:3.6:9.0 at. % using Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) and elastic recoil detection analysis (ERDA). The hydrogen content of the FIB-CVD DLC film was lower than that of DLC films formed using other CVD methods.
