Abstract: A coated substrate, includes a coating that includes, starting from the substrate in this order: a) a layer of diamond-like carbon (DLC), b) a metallic, single-ply or multi-ply layer, and c) an oxygen barrier layer, wherein the metallic, single-ply or multi-ply layer contains b1) tin or tin and at least one alloying element for tin, which are present unalloyed and/or alloyed, or b2) magnesium and at least one alloying element for magnesium, which are present unalloyed and/or alloyed. The coated substrate protects the DLC layer, as a result of which said layer can be tempered. The coating has good mechanical stability and good aging stability before heat treatment.

Abstract: A method for coating a substrate with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) layer using a PECVD method with plasma generation by a magnetron target (magnetron PECVD) in a vacuum chamber, in which the magnetron, which is provided with the target, and the substrate are arranged, includes introducing at least one reactant gas into the plasma generated by the magnetron target in the vacuum chamber, as a result of which fragments of the reactive gas are formed, which are deposited forming the DLC layer on the substrate.
