Effect of pre-nucleation techniques on enhancing nucleation density and the adhesion of ultra-nanocrystalline diamond (UNCD) deposited on the Si substrates at low temperature were investigated. Four different pre-nucleation techniques were used for depositing UNCD films: (i) bias-enhanced nucleation (BEN); (ii) pre-carburized and then ultrasonicated with diamond powder solution (PC-U); (iii) ultrasonicated with diamond and Ti mixed powder solution (U-m); (iv) ultrasonicated with diamond powder solution (U). The nucleation density is lowest for UNCD/TJ-substrate films (similar to 10(8) grains/cm(2)), which results in roughest surface and poorest film-to-substrate adhesion. The UNCD/PC-U-substrate films show largest nucleation density (similar to 1 x 10(11) grains/cm(2)) and most smooth surface (8.81 nm-rms), whereas the UNCD/BEN-substrate films exhibit the strongest adhesion to the Si substrates (critical loads= similar to 67 mN). Such a phenomenon can be ascribed to the high kinetic energy of the carbon species, which easily form covalent bonding, Si-C, and bond strongly to both the Si and diamond. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
