Amorphous carbon is actually made up of tiny bits of graphite with varying amounts of other elements, which are considered impurities. For example, the coal industry divides coal up into various grades depending on the amount of carbon in the coal and the amount of impurities.

The Element Carbon - Basic Physical and Historical Information ... Amorphous carbon is formed when a material containing carbon is burned without enough oxygen for it to burn completely. This black soot, also known as lampblack, gas black, channel black or carbon black, is used to make inks, paints and rubber products.

At a high enough irradiation dose, amorphization of the crystal structure may occur and two specific amorphous forms of carbon may appear: the tetrahedrally bonded Diamond-like Amorphous Carbon which will be denoted by ta-C and the sp2 bonded Graphite-like Amorphous Carbon named a-C.

amorphous carbon; A carbon material without long-range crystalline order. Short-range order exists, but with deviations of the interatomic distances and/or interbonding angles with respect to the graphite lattice as well as to the diamond lattice.
