DC-Plasma arc behavior is one of the key factors on growth of diamond film. The results show that keeping steady DC-Plasma arc can grow better quality diamond film. In a long-time growth of diamond film, there is sediment carbon on about 5mm border-entad anode annulus, which was proved to be graphite. It results in fluctuating and instability of DC-Plasma arc and in the DC-Plasma density, which causes graphite generation and much stress in the film. By means of adjusting anode annulus assembly, pausing the supply of carbon source and increasing H2, the problem of sediment carbon cab be effectively resolved. Finally, the mechanism of the effect of arc behavior on growth of diamond film is discussed.

Diamond spherical shell thick film was prepared by high power DC-plasma jet CVD. Atom force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and roughness-profile-meter were used to characterize microstructure, morphology, impurities and orientation evolution of diamond spherical shell thick film. The results show that, when nucleation begins, grains grow random orientation. The grain size of spherical diamond film prepared is compact, clear, uniform, continuous and no remarkable bigger grain over the whole surface of film. On the growth surface, (100) facets were dominant, and the cross-section SEM indicated that film columnar spreading grew from the substrate surface to the diamond film surface. The roughness of the growth surface was much more than that of the nucleation surface. To adjust some important parameters as methane concentrate, depositing time, and matrix temperature, and high quality diamond spherical shell thick film was deposited.

The arc-anode attachment in the DC plasma arc influences power distribution in the plasma, a lifespan of anode and flow structure of plasma jet. A movement of the attachment and the surrounding plasma was directly observed by using a high-speed camera (max. 1,080,000 fps). The observations were compared with cathode-anode voltage measurements (sample rate 80 MHz). We have directly measured the average velocity of the attachments and hydrodynamic waves above them, as well as the characteristic dwell times and dwell frequencies of the attachments.

<p>Plasma arc recovery melting of the quartz-leucoxene concentrate is investigated. Experiments were made in laboratory DC plasma arc furnace in various crucibles. The best results are reached in a cold copper crucible. The temperature field of a pool is calculated in hot graphite and cold copper crucibles. It is shown that in a graphite crucible diameter of an anode spot is more, and density of current and material temperature in a spot is less, than in copper that is the reason of the worst refinements in a graphite crucible.</p>
