TLDR
In this article, a 3-μm diamond film was grown on Si wafers at about 3 μm/hr by microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition and the infrared transmission of a 3μm thick film varied from near 61% at 5000 cm −1 to near 75% at 1000 cm − 1.

Thermodynamics of metastable phase nucleation at the nanoscale

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a universal thermodynamic approach on nanoscale to elucidate the formation of the metastable phases taking place in the micro-phase growth, which was used to study the theory of nucleation and growth of diamond nanowires inside diamond nanotubes.

Characterization of single-crystal diamond grown by chemical vapour deposition processes

TL;DR: In this article, it was observed that the crystallographic orientation of the substrate is an important factor for the quality of the epilayer and the incorporation of point defects such as boron, hydrogen and nitrogen is strongly dependent on both the substrate orientation and the deposition temperature.

Diamond for wear and corrosion applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the tribological and chemical properties of diamond and diamond coatings and discussed the developments which will need to take place if successful diamond coating are to be produced on engineering components.

Examination of the chemistry involved in microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition of diamond

TL;DR: In this article, chemical reaction products formed in a microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition apparatus for diamond film deposition are detected using mass spectrometry, indicating that a common reaction mechanism is active in all cases.

ESR in Diamond Thin Films Synthesized by Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition : Surfaces, Interfaces and Films

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative study on the ESR and Raman spectra of diamond CVD CVD films is performed, showing that the diamond films of good quality have a spin density of ~1018 cm-3.

Determination of the thickness and optical constants of amorphous silicon

TL;DR: In this article, a rigorous expression for the transmission of a thin absorbing film on a transparent substrate is manipulated to yield formulae in closed form for the refractive index and absorption coefficient.

Characterization of diamond films by Raman spectroscopy

TL;DR: The Raman spectrum of hexagonal diamond (lonsdaleite) is distinct from that of the cubic diamond and allows it to be recognized as discussed by the authors, and the Raman line width varies with mode of preparation of the diamond and has been related to degree of structural order.

Determination of surface roughness and optical constants of inhomogeneous amorphous silicon films

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of thickness variation, surface roughness and variation in refractive index on the transmission spectrum of thin thin films were analyzed and analytical expressions were derived from which all the optical constants of an inhomogeneous film can be calculated from the optical transmission spectrum.

Raman scattering characterization of carbon bonding in diamond and diamondlike thin films

TL;DR: In this article, the atomic bonding configurations of carbon bonding in diamond and diamond-like thin films are explored using Raman scattering, and the general aspects of Raman scatter from composites are presented.
