Influence of N_2 Addition for Diamond Films Synthesized by Combustion Flame Method Using High Purity Acetylene Gas

Diamond films from combustion of methyl acetylene and propadiene

To date diamond films grown with the combustion technique have used either acetylene or, rarely, ethylene as the fuel. However, there are barriers to large scale commercialization of the combustion technique using either fuel. For example, acetylene is relatively expensive and difficult to handle, while the use of ethylene gives relatively low growth rates. In this letter we propose replacing a...

XPS and Auger study of the radial variations of diamond thin films grown by the oxy-acetylene flame method

Free standing diamond thin films grown by the oxyracetylene frame method have been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). The radial distribution of the sp2-hybridized carbon species on the films and, consequently, the film quality, have been determined. While XPS does not seem to be an appropriate technique to distinguish between very smal...
