An experimental study has been conducted in order to elucidate influences of additions of hydrogen and methane on the combustion synthesis of diamond films. Differences between the flat flame and the conical flame are first examined, and it is reconfirmed that the velocity gradient is one of the dominant parameters in the combustion synthesis of diamond films. Additions of hydrogen and/or methane are examined on the growth rates of diamond films, crystal sizes, and morphology. These results are also confirmed by conducting the similar experiments with a welding torch, instead of the flat flame burner. It is found that an addition of hydrogen reduces the growth rate and crystal size, while that of methane enhances those although homogeneity of the diamond films is reduced.

An experimental study to synthesize diamond films has been conducted under a well-defined flow field to make clear the mechanism of combustion synthesis of diamond films. Using a flat flame burner, the homogeneous diamond films are synthesized on substrates, above which flat, premixed acetylene/hydrogen/oxygen flames are established. The effect of equivalence ratio and velocity gradient is examined on the growth rates of diamond films, crystal sizes, and their morphology. It is found that not only the maximum growth rate but also the maximum crystal size can be obtained when the equivalence ratio is about 2.50, and that the growth rate, crystal size, and/or morphology are nearly the same when the velocity gradient is kept constant. These results are confirmed by a conical flame with a welding torch. In addition, the scratching treatment for the substrates by diamond powder is unnecessary, the maximum growth rate of diamond films can be obtained when the surface roughness is about 0.11 μm, and the nuclei of diamond appear in scratches on the substrates.
