Abstract

In this paper, the growth of Lonsdaleite diamond using hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) on flashed and reconstructed Si (100) is reported. Surface morphology studies using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) show that the film is composed of decahedron and icosahedron diamond particles. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern has a strongest peak at 47° and a peak at 41°, which is indicative of Lonsdaleite nature of the grown diamond film. The Raman spectrum of the film shows a broadened diamond peak at wave number of 1,329 cm−1, which has shifted towards the peak position corresponding to Lonsdaleite nature of the diamond (1,326 cm−1).
