In the process of preparing amorphous carbon (a-C) thin films, a spherical carbon was discovered by chance. This spherical carbon was named Clover-Flower-Like Carbon (CFL-C) because of its conical carbon structure, which resembles that of white clover. In this study, we attempted to synthesize CFL-C by changing various parameters of the radiofrequency magnetron sputtering method, and investigated the shape and chemical bonding state of the obtained CFL-C.
