Research Abstract |
High quality diamond films have been fabricated by employing a magneto-activated plasma chemical vapor deposition system (ECR Plasma CVD system) and a conventional plasma CVD system. Studies on emission centers, emission mechanism of the CVD diamond films, which are undoped, B- or N-doped, irradiated by electron or neutron, annealed, have been carried out using cathodolumionescence (CL). A variety of CL depending on crystal perfection, impurities and defects such as vacancies and interstials have been observed. Undoped CVD diamond has an emission peak at blue region (2.8-2.9eV) in its CL spectra, the same as that obtained from natural IIa diamond. From the particles of 4-5mum in size, the free exciton recombination radiation equivalent to that of natural IIb diamond has been observed. It indicates extremely high crystallinity and purity of CVD diamonds formed by plasma CVD. The recombination radiation of bound excitons due to nuetral acceptors has been observed in boron-doped CVD diamon

ds. The luminescence intensity increases as the amount of boron in diamonds increases. The emissions from color centers are prominent after the high-energy electron or thermal neutron irradiation and subsequent annealing. The 5RL center (the zero-phonon line at 4.58eV) originated from intrinsic defects has been observed prominently in undoped CVD diamonds. In nitrogen-doped diamonds, the 3.19eV center due to nitrogen-vacancy complex has appeared after the annealing subsequent to the electron irradiation. Moreover, from the CL imaging, the intrinsic luminescence such as free exciton recombination radiation is found to be located in [100] sectors and the extrinsic luminescence such as the 2.16eV center is located in [111] sectors. In this work, an electro-luminescence has been observed, for the first time, from a Schottky diode formed by p-type diamond and Al structure. A well understanding on optical behavior of CVD diamond and a great approach to electro-luminscence devices using of CVD diamond have been contributed in this study Less
