Effect of deposition parameters on micro-and nano-crystalline diamond films growth on WC-Co substrates by HFCVD

沉积参数对硬质合金基体微/纳米金刚石薄膜生长的影响(英文)

The characteristics of hot filament chemical vapor deposition（HFCVD） diamond films are significantly influenced by the deposition parameters, such as the substrate temperature, total pressure and carbon concentration. Orthogonal experiments were introduced to study the comprehensive effects of such three parameters on diamond films deposited on WC-Co substrates. Field emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and Raman spectrum were employed to analyze the morphology, growth rate and composition of as-deposited diamond films. The morphology varies from pyramidal to cluster features with temperature decreasing. It is found that the low total pressure is suitable for nano-crystalline diamond films growth. Moreover, the substrate temperature and total pressure have combined influence on the growth rate of the diamond films.

基体温度、反应压力和碳源浓度等沉积参数决定热丝化学气相沉积金刚石薄膜的性能。运用正交试验方法,研究参数对硬质合金基体金刚石薄膜生长的综合作用。采用场发射扫描电镜(FE-SEM)、原子力显微镜(AFM)和拉曼(Raman)光谱检测薄膜的形貌结构、生长速率和成分。结果表明:随着基体温度的降低,金刚石形貌从锥形结构向团簇状结构转变;低反应压力有利于纳米金刚石薄膜的生成;生长速率受反应压力和碳源浓度综合作用的影响。
