Detection of CH3 during CVD Growth of Diamond by Optical Absorption

Abstract

The absolute concentration of CH3 is measured during diamond growth for a range of input CH4 concentrations using multi-element optical absorption spectroscopy at wavelengths 4 near 216 nm. A detection limit of 2xl0 to the 11th power CH3, radicals/cu cm has been achieved. We also detect C2H2 during diamond growth using the same technique.
