The simultaneous interaction of methyl radicals (CH3) and atomic hydrogen (H) with the surface of amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) film is investigated. Two identical quantified beam sources for H and CH3 are used. The growth and/or erosion during the simultaneous interaction of the two beams with an amorphous hydrogenated carbon film is monitored by using in situ real-time ellipsometry at a substrate temperature of 320 K. Interaction with the CH3 beam alone causes slow growth, corresponding to a sticking coefficient for CH3 of similar to 3x10(-5). Simultaneous interaction of the atomic hydrogen beam and the CH3 radical beam yields a sticking coefficient for CH3 of 3x10(-3), which is two orders of magnitude larger than for CH3 alone. From a microscopic modeling of this synergistic growth, the reaction probability for CH3 adsorbing at an adsorption site, which is created by atomic hydrogen at the surface, is derived to be 0.14.
