K. Iakoubovskii et al., Nitrogen incorporation in diamond films homoepitaxially grown by chemical vapour deposition, J PHYS-COND, 12(30), 2000, pp. L519-L524
Photoluminescence, optical absorption and electron spin-resonance results a
re reported for diamond films: homoepitaxially grown by chemical vapour dep
osition on (100)-oriented natural IIa diamond. Measured dependencies of the
corresponding signals on the growth temperature in the range 950-2100 degr
ees C suggest that while most of the nitrogen is present in our films as si
ngle atoms, a small part(about 10(-3) of all of the nitrogen) could be inco
rporated as N-2 molecules.
