CVD Nanocrystalline Diamond Film Doped with Eu
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
- The first stage was the seeding of a silicon substrate with diamond powder using a DND suspension (conc. 0.69 wt.%). The DND hydrosol was sonicated for two hours. All silicon substrates were preliminarily cleaned in acetone in an ultrasonic bath, then ultrasonicated in hydrosol for two hours.
- The products from the first stage of growing a silicon substrate were placed in a CVD reactor. DND particles acted as nucleation centers during the growth of a nanocrystalline diamond film. The duration of the diamond film growth process was one hour; as a result of the growth, the film thickness was 300 nm. The film thickness was measured by the method described in the previous paper [12].
- In the second stage, the surface of nanocrystalline diamond film was treated with nanodiamond particles with a surface modified with Eu ions. The concentration of the DND-Eu particles in hydrosol was 1.43 wt.%.
- Then, in the second stage, growth of a diamond film on DND-Eu particles was completed. The overgrowth time was 10 min and the thickness of diamond film doped with Eu did not exceed 50 nm.
