Abstract

A highly (111)-oriented, highly coalesced diamond film was grown on platinum (111) surface by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD). Scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction analyses revealed that the (111) diamond facets were azimuthally oriented epitaxially with respect to the orientation of the Pt(111) domain underneath, with the neighboring facets of diamond being coalesced with each other. The film was confirmed as diamond using Raman spectroscopy.
