Diamond chemical vapor deposition
Kromka, Alexander
Present paper reviews growth of diamond thin films by various chemical vapor deposition processes. Basic characteristics and common features of processes are pointed out with a respect to quality of grown films and standard process parameters. Novel and non-standard diamond syntheses techniques are briefly discussed.

Pulsed linear antenna microwave plasma – a step ahead in large area material depositions and surface functionalization
Kromka, Alexander ; Babchenko, Oleg ; Ižák, Tibor ; Potocký, Štěpán ; Davydova, Marina ; Neykova, Neda ; Kozak, Halyna ; Remeš, Zdeněk ; Hruška, Karel ; Rezek, Bohuslav
A technological progress in the large area growth of diamond films and carbon nanotubes by the modified linear antenna MW system is presented. We show a correlation between process parameters and nano- or poly-crystalline film character. A challenging part, diamond coated mirrors or ATR prisms, are shown as multifunctional optical elements suitable for detection of absorbed molecules. Additional positive feature of the presented plasma system is low temperature hydrogen functionalization of diamond films. Finally, we present that combination of pulsed MW plasma with radiofrequency substrate biasing results in growth of oriented CNTs over large area.
