Hydrogen plasma interaction with (100) diamond surfaces

Polycrystalline diamond films exhibiting (100) oriented surfaces have been subject to a low pressure hydrogen plasma for durations up to 20 h. The topography of spatially defined 20 × 20 μm areas of the samples were imaged by atomic force microscopy at intervals during the plasma exposure. The mean...

Zusammenfassung:Polycrystalline diamond films exhibiting (100) oriented surfaces have been subject to a low pressure hydrogen plasma for durations up to 20 h. The topography of spatially defined 20 × 20 μm areas of the samples were imaged by atomic force microscopy at intervals during the plasma exposure. The mean surface roughness of individual (100) crystallites decreased from ca. 2.4 nm to
