CVD diamond films were synthesized by the chemical vapor deposition method. With increasing the oxygen content in the deposition atmosphere, the density of diamond nuclei decreases. No diamond is formed when the oxygen content is more than one percent. The density of diamond nuclei is improved with increasing the methane content. Adding oxygen to the deposition atmosphere can enhance the purity of diamond.

ABSTRACTThe addition of nitrous oxide (N2O) gas in the hot-filament chemical vapor deposition of carbon film from mixtures of methane and hydrogen was found to increase remarkably the content of diamond structure in the film. Increased particle size and crystal orientation parallel to the (111) direction were also obtained by the N2O addition. Mass spectrometry revealed that the vapor phase reaction was scarcely affected by the N2O addition.
