Ion-assisted plasma enhanced deposition of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films on the surface of photovoltaic solar cells is accomplished with a method and apparatus for controlling ion energy. The quality of DLC layers is fine-tuned by a properly biased system of special electrodes and by exact control of the feed gas mixture compositions. Uniform (with degree of non-uniformity of optical parameters less than 5%) large area (more than 110 cm) DLC films with optical parameters varied within the given range and with stability against harmful effects of the environment are achieved.

Method and apparatus for making diamond-like carbon films

Subterranean oil and gas producing formations are fractured by filling a well casing with a compressible hydraulic fracturing fluid comprising a mixture of liquid, compressed gas, and propant material and precompressed to a pressure of about 1,000 psi or more greater than the fracture extension pressure at the depth of the zone to be fractured. A perforator is provided in the casing to form fluid exit perforations at the selected depth of the fracture zone. Following perforation the perforated zone is fractured by the precompressed fracturing fluid laden with propant material that is discharged into the formation until the hydraulic extension pressure is reached and the perforations are eventually sanded off. Optionally, filling of the well bore is maintained continuously through the filling and perforation of the casing until after decompression of the fracturing fluid is completed.

Well treating method and system for stimulating recovery of fluids

Subterranean oil and gas producing formations are fractured by providing one or more combustion gas generating units using rocket fuel type propellants disposed in a well casing at preselected depths. The well casing is filled with a compressible hydraulic fracturing fluid comprising a mixture of liquid, compressed gas, and propant material and precompressed to a pressure of about 1,000 psi or more greater than the fracture extension pressure at the depth of the zone to be fractured. At least one of the gas generating units is equipped with perforating shaped charges to form fluid exit perforations at the selected depth of the fracture zone. The gas generating units are simultaneously ignited to generate combustion gasses and perforate the well casing. The perforated zone is fractured by the rapid outflow of an initial charge of sand free combustion gas at the compression pressure followed by a charge of fracturing fluid laden with propant material and then a second charge of combustion gas. The column of precompressed fracturing fluid is discharged into the formation until the hydraulic extension pressure is reached and eventually the perforations sanded off.
