The invention provides a nano-
diamond seed crystal planting method and application of the nano-
diamond seed crystal planting method in CVD
diamond growth. The nano-diamond
seed crystal planting method comprises the following steps that S1, surface-modified nano-diamond is dispersed in a low-boiling-point
organic solvent to form dispersion liquid; s2, dropwise adding the dispersion liquid to the surface of low-temperature deionized water, and diffusing the
organic solvent to form a monomolecular layer film; s3, the substrate is immersed in deionized water for pulling, and the monomolecular layer thin film is completely attached to the substrate; and S4,
drying the monomolecular layer film. According to the invention, the huge interfacial tension difference between an
organic solvent and a high-surface-tension water phase is utilized, the nano-diamond is compressed in the
solvent volatilization process to form a compact single-layer film, the
van der Waals force agglomeration limitation is broken through, and liquid-liquid interfacial tension driven self-
assembly is realized; by modifying the surface of the nano-diamond, the
dispersity and interface behavior of the nano-diamond in an organic
solvent are regulated and controlled, and the
coffee ring effect and agglomeration problems are solved;
solvent diffusion is controlled through a low-temperature water phase, organic solvent
diffusion is accelerated, a monomolecular layer thin film is formed, nanoscale precision arrangement is achieved, and high-
crystal-quality diamond can be conveniently prepared.
