Deposition Experiments with Separated Atomic Hydrogen and CH4 Sources

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 266))

Abstract

The mechanism of low pressure diamond deposition is a matter of high interest not only for researchers but also for those who want to apply these films. Only a deep insight into the deposition process will allow the adequate design (eg. transparency, graining etc.) of diamond films for the various fields of application.
