Here we present investigations on the growth conditions and the electrical transport properties of Tungsten Carbon (WC) and Palladium Carbon (PdC) nanostructures on Si substrates using a focused ion beam and a scanning electron microscope. In-situ energy dispersive x-ray characterizations reveal that electron beam induced WC and PdC nanostructure depositions (EBID) show a lower metal concentration (below 3 at.%) than in ion beam induced deposition (IBID) (above 20). For PdC the growth pattern and the Pd/C content were optimized by adjusting the deposition temperature of the precursor material. In-situ measurements of the resistivity as a function of thickness reveal a minimum at 200 nm. The lowest resistivity obtained for the PdC and WC is two orders of magnitude higher than the bulk values. The EBID samples show a non-metallic behaviour due to the low metal content. The temperature and magnetic field dependence of the IBID structures reveal a behaviour similar to disordered or granular conductors. The upper critical field and current density of the WC structures were measured below the superconducting critical temperature of 5 K.
