The effect of the nitrogenation on the electrochemical properties of nanocrystalline diamond films produced by microwave plasma CVD in CH4-Ar-H-2-N-2 gas mixtures was studied systematically, using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements, for the first time. Differential capacitance, kinetic parameters of reactions in [Fe(CN)6](3-/4)-redox system and potential window were found to be sensitive to the nitrogen concentration in the process gas. With its increase (from 0 to 25%), a transition of the NCD film behavior from "poor conductor" to metal-like character takes place. The heavily N-doped nanocrystalline diamond films have satisfactory electrochemical properties to be used as electrodes. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
