Abstract

We have used x-ray diffraction to characterize diamond films grown in three characteristic morphologies by chemical vapor deposition. Each morphology has a fiber texture about the growth direction; we report the crystal axis aligned in this direction for each morphology. In all cases the average lattice constant agrees with that of bulk diamond; we report the range of strain in each sample.
