摘要
High-quality B-doped homoepitaxial diamond films have been synthesized by microwave plasma chemical-vapor-deposition (CVD) using a mixture consisting of CH4, H-2, and trimethylboron B(CH3)(3) diluted by H-2 gas. These films have been obtained on the basis of the approach that high-quality diamond films should be grown in a clean CVD system. Hall-effect measurements of the film show that the Hall mobility exceeds about 1800 cm(2)/V . s when the hole concentration is 2.3 x 10(14) cm(-3) at room temperature (290 K) and about 3300 cm(2)/V . s at 170 K. These results indicate that the quality of the present B-doped CVD films is comparable with or better than that of high-quality natural diamonds.
