Abstract
The initial stages of diamond growth on nickel have been studied by in situ electron-excited soft x-ray emission spectroscopy. The study has been able to clarify that the codeposition of ordered graphite at the substrate/film interface is due to carbon precipitation during the co oling-down period after the deposition. The possibility to follow a de position process from the initial stages to the end with soft x-ray em ission spectroscopy is also demonstrated. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
