Abstract
This paper presents an updated and systematic overview of the recent d evelopments in studies on nucleation processes in diamond CVD. The nuc leation mechanisms are discussed, and the nucleation enhancement metho ds developed to date are summarized. The effects of surface conditions and deposition parameters on the surface nucleation are described Fin ally, a brief description of theoretical and modeling studies on the s urface nucleation is given.
