Diamond-like carbon films (DLC) were deposited on single crystalline silicon surface under different RF negative bias in microwave electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma source. The chemical structure and morphology were characterized by Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The friction coefficient of films was measured to examine the film property later. The results show that the smooth and compact deposited films were typical hydrogenated diamond-like carbon with CHn stretching vibration in 2800-3000cm-1. It is noticed that with the increase of RF bias on the substrate the peak intensity for C-H stretching vibration in spectrum between 2800cm-1~3000cm-1 increased at the beginning and then decreased, which caused the friction coefficient of the film being smaller and then larger in reverse. In 50W RF biased power one can obtain the maximum-CHn peak intensity and the minimum friction coefficient.
