The effect of surface roughness of the substrate on HF-CVD diamond coating was researched. The surface roughness was changed variously by electro-chemical etching conditions. The etching process acted to remove the metallic cobalt from the WC-Co. Diamond nucleation density was higher in etched the substrate. Therefore, the etching process was effective in both Co-removal and higher surface roughness, leading to the improving the diamond nucleation and deposition.

In this study, polycrystalline diamond was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Diamond films were deposited on a-plane sapphire substrates while changing the concentration of methane for hydrogen (CH₄/H₂), and the concentrations of methane were 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 4 vol%, respectively. Crystallinity and nucleation density according to changes in methane concentration were investigated. At this time, the discharge power, vacuum pressure, and deposition time were kept constant. In order to deposit polycrystalline diamond, the sapphire substrate was etched with sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide (ratio 3:7), and the sapphire surface was polished for 30 minutes with 100 nm-sized nanodiamond particles. The deposited diamond thin film was analyzed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM), a Raman spectra, Atomic force microscope (AFM) and an X-ray diffractometer (XRD). By controlling the ratio of methane to hydrogen and performing appropriate pre-treatment conditions, a polycrystalline diamond thin film having excellent crystallinity and nucleation density was obtained.

The effect of DC bias on the growth of nanocrystalline diamond films on silicon substrate by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition has been studied varying the substrate temperature (400, 500, 600, and $700^{\circ}C$), deposition time (0.5, 1, and 2h), and bias voltage (-50, -100, -150, and -200 V) at the microwave power of 1.2 kW, working pressure of 110 torr, and gas ratio of Ar/1%$CH_4$. In the case of low negative bias voltages (-50 and -100 V), the diamond particles were observed to grow to thin film slower than the case without bias. Applying the moderate DC bias is believed to induce the bombardment of energetic carbon and argon ions on the substrate to result in etching the surfaces of growing diamond particles or film. In the case of higher negative voltages (-150 and -200 V), the growth rate of diamond film increased with the increasing DC bias. Applying the higher DC bias increased the number of nucleation sites, and, subsequently, enhanced the film growth rate. Under the -150 V bias, the height (h) of diamond films exhibited an $h=k{\sqrt{t}}$ relationship with deposition time (t), where the growth rate constant (k) showed an Arrhenius relationship with the activation energy of 7.19 kcal/mol. The rate determining step is believed to be the surface diffusion of activated carbon species, but the more subtle theoretical treatment is required for the more precise interpretation.

Synthetic diamond films were deposited on pretreated silicon substrate in activated gas phase using RF plasma-assisted CVD. We investigated the influence of $O_2$ gas on facets of diamond crystal. In $H_2-CH_4-O_2$ gas mixture, the increase of oxygen concentration lead to well-faceted diamond particles and increasing crystallinity of diamond films. The deposited diamond films were analyzed by SEM, XRD, Raman spectroscopy.

It has been investigated for the film uniformity and deposition rate of a-C:H films on glass substrate and polymeric materials in the presence of the modulated crossed magnetic field. We used Plasma CVD, i.e, using a crossed electromagnetic field, for uniform depositing thin film. The optimum discharge condition has been discussed for the gas pressure, the magnetic flux density and the distance between substrate and electrodes, As a result, it is found that the optimum discharge conditions are $CH_4$ concentration $CH_4$=10 %, modulated magnetic flux density B=48 Gauss, pressure P=100 mTorr, discharge power supply voltage V=l kV under these experimental conditions. By using these experimental condition, it is possible to prepare the most uniform film extends over about 160 mm of the film width. In this study, we deposited a-C:H thin film on glass substrate, and have a plan that using this condition, study depositing a-C:H thin film on polymeric substrate in next studies.

다이아몬드 박막은 RF PACVD법에 의해 수소와 메탄으로부터 실리콘 웨이퍼 상에 성장되어졌다. 박막 성장 전에 표면의 핵생성 밀도를 증가시키기 위하여 1㎛의 다이아몬드 페이스트로 기계적 흡집을 내어 사용하였다. 메탄 농도를 변화시켜 제작한 박막에 대한 평가는 XRD, SEM 및 Raman Spectroscopy에 의해 이루어졌다. 성장된 박막의 결정성은 메탄 농도가 낮을수록 증가되었다.

A new paradigm of crystal growth was suggested in a charged cluster model, where charged clusters of nanometer size are suspended in the gas phase in most thin film processes and are a major flux for thin film growth. The existence of these hypothetical clusters was experimentally confirmed in the diamond and silicon CVD processes as well as in gold and tungsten evaporation. These results imply new insights as to the low pressure diamond synthesis without hydrogen, epitaxial growth, selective deposition and fabrication of quantum dots, nanometer-sized powders and nanowires or nanotubes. Based on this concept, we produced such quantum dot structures of carbon, silicon, gold and tungsten. Charged clusters land preferably on conducting substrates over on insulating substrates, resulting in selective deposition. if the behavior of selective deposition is properly controlled, charged clusters can make highly anisotropic growth, leading to nanowires or nanotubes.

A surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter structure was fabricated employing $4{\mu}m$ thick nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) and $2.2{\mu}m$ thick ZnO films on Si wafer. The NCD film was deposited in an $Ar/CH_4$ gas mixture by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition method. The ZnO film was formed over the NCD film in an RF magnetron sputter using ZnO target and $Ar/O_2$ gas. On the top of the two layers, copper film was deposited by the RF sputter and inter digital transducer (IDT) electrode pattern (line/space : $1.5/1.5{\mu}m$) was defined by the photolithography including a lift-off etching process. The fabricated SAW filter exhibited the center frequency of 1.66 GHz and the phase velocity of 9,960 m/s, which demonstrated that a giga Hertz SAW filter can be realized by utilizing the nanocrystalline diamond thin film.
