The passage of a swift heavy ion through tetrahedral amrophous carbon (ta-C), unlike through boron nitride (BN), leaves a conductive ion track behind. In this work three types of ion tracks were created: uninterrupted conductive ion tracks in ta-C only samples, tracks with a single, highly resistive barrier of BN and samples with two high-resistance BN barriers and a conductive island in the thin ta-C layer in between. The ta-C and BN layers were consecutively grown using mass selective ion beam deposition. The tracks were formed by irradiation with 30MeV C602+ fullerenes. The irradiated samples were analysed using conductive atomic force microscopy (cAFM) at room temperature. As a measure for the homogeneity of the created tracks, the distribution of track conductivities over a large-area of the sample is presented. Additionally, the current-voltage behaviour of the three variants of tracks will be shown.
