Stability in air increased by depositing amorphous carbon. Initially graphite fibers intercalated (insertion of atoms or molecules between graphite layers). Next, conductor coated with diamondlike amorphous carbon. Coating applied in same chamber as intercalation reaction or alternate deposichamber is used. Deposition of carbon accomplished by any number of techniques. tion Ion-beam sputter-deposition and RF plasma techniques have been used, but dc plasma and others work also. Potential uses include conductive epoxy composites, tether conductors, signal wire, and power cables.
