413 - IR Reflectance and Raman Scattering of Diamond Films

Abstract

The investigative work has involved analysis and interpretation of the features seen from the diamond films supplied by various workers mentioned in A, above. From the various diamond films, three general types of peaks were seen. These correspond to peak frequencies of 1330/cm (a very sharp peak), ca. 1350/cm (a very broad peak), and ca. 1600/cm (a broad and sometimes structured contour). To understand these three classes of peaks we obtained Raman spectra from bulk crystalline diamond, from various graphites, and from a wide range of amorphous carbons. The data and tentative interpretation are presented below.
