NANOCRYSTALLINE DIAMOND FILM AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME

摘要

A uniform nanocrystalline diamond thin film with minimized voids is formed on a silicon oxide-coated substrate and a method for fabricating same are disclosed. The nanocrystalline diamond thin film is formed by performing hydrogen plasma treatment, hydrocarbon plasma treatment or hydrocarbon thermal treatment on the substrate surface to maximize electrostatic attraction between the substrate surface and nanodiamond particles during the following ultrasonic seeding such that the nanodiamond particles are uniformly distributed and bound on the silicon oxide on the substrate.
