Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantages of this technology are as follows: first, due to the lattice mismatch between diamond and silicon substrate, the nucleation density of diamond on silicon substrate is very low, and the density of nuclei in (001) orientation is even lower
Although bias nucleation helps to improve the diamond nucleation density and the density of (001)-oriented nuclei, the density of non-(001)-oriented nuclei is usually significantly higher than that of (001)-oriented nuclei, so the grown diamond film ( 001) orientation degree is not high, there is a high grain boundary density and defect concentration, and the quality is poor; second, the diamond shows a three-dimensional island structure in the early stage of growth, due to the low density of (001) orientation nuclei, when When the film is very thin, the non-(001) oriented nuclei have not been covered by the (001) oriented nuclei, the (001) oriented film has not yet formed, and the grain boundary density and impurity concentration in the film are relatively high
Therefore prepare oriented film with this method, only when reaching certain film thickness (usually film thickness is 5-10 micron), just can form (001) oriented film, and the increase of film thickness causes the high stress in the film, makes Reduced adhesion of the film to the substrate, limiting its wide application

Abstract

A process for preparing high-orientation (001) diamond film by H-ion etching to diamond nuclear includes such steps as applying negative DC bias to the moncrystal silicon substrate, providing methane and H2 as raw gas, bias nucleating, bias etching and texture growing to obtain diamond film.
