Abstract

Highly oriented diamond film was grown on a (100) Si substrate by a bias-enhanced microwave-plasma chemical vapor deposition. The Si surface was carburized at a faster rate by bias treatment than by carburization alone, but the initial carburization stage was indispensable. During the bias treatment, the flat surface was changed to a textured structure on the nanometer scale. The formation of this structure was required for the synthesis of a highly oriented diamond film. Diamond microcrystals formed subsequently were irregular and of a few to a few tens nanometers in size. They then grew to oriented film in the following growth process.
