Synthesizing Cubic Diamond Crystal Using DC Plasma Jet CVD

DOI

Description

<jats:p>Diamond crystals are successfully synthesized by irradiating DC arc plasma jet to the substrate set in a methanol solution. It is the important procedure to preheat the substrate by inert Ar plasma jet before introducing the methanol solution gas to the plasma jet gun. The effects of two experimental conditions, the incident power and the substrates, are investigated. In the case of the Si substrate, cubic crystalline diamond grains of same size are synthesized at the plasma power of 470W. High speed hetero epitaxy is expected by using this method. In the case of the tungsten carbide substrate, diamond crystals and carbon nanotubes are simultaneously synthesized at the plasma power of 260W. The catalytic effect of Co binder in the substrate may cause the chemical reaction of the nanotube synthesis.</jats:p>
