Abstract
The use of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) investigations is reviewed. As an example, CVD diamo nd growth from CH4 and H-2 assisted by a hot filament was studied in s itu using SERS. trans- Polyacetylene formation during diamond growth w as clearly demonstrated. The possible role of polyacetylene in diamond formation is discussed. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
