Abstract
Surface morphology of thick diamond films was investigated using scann ing electron microscopy (SEM). The dissociation of {111} faces into {1 10} faces is positively confirmed by the geometrical consideration of the crystal shapes, such as the V-shaped penetration twins and some ot her unusual crystal shapes. Growth mechanisms of the diamond {111} and {110} faces are discussed.
