Structure defects, aspects of onset nucleation and film growth mechanisms can also be related to columnar growth. In this work we focused our attention on the columnar structure of CVD-diamond grown on irregular surfaces. We observed that there is a relationship among curvature radius of the substrate surface, the spread of the column volume and the growth rate of the diamond film. Growth rates on spherical surfaces of around 0.5 mm curvature radius have been observed to be up to three times bigger than the growth rates on planar surfaces. Also, the grain size distribution on planar and on the corner surfaces as a function of the growth rate has been studied. Characterization with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman scattering spectroscopy (RSS) has been performed. %8 Oct. %N 11 %T Columnar CVD diamond growth structure on irregular surface substrates %@secondarytype PRE PI %K MATERIALS PHYSICS, Diamonde CVD, Columnar growth, Grain size, Abrading, Polycrystaline dimaond, Films, FÍSICA DE MATERIAIS, Diamante, Crescimento de colunas, Diamante policristalino, Filmes. %@visibility shown %@group LAS-INPE-MCT-BR %@group LAS-INPE-MCT-BR %@group LAS-INPE-MCT-BR %@group LAS-INPE-MCT-BR %@secondarykey INPE-10736-PRE/6195 %@copyholder SID/SCD %2 sid.inpe.br/marciana/2004/06.21.14.32.28 %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais, Laboratório Associado de Sensores e Materiais (INPE.LAS) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais, Laboratório Associado de Sensores e Materiais (INPE.LAS) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais, Laboratório Associado de Sensores e Materiais (INPE.LAS) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais, Laboratório Associado de Sensores e Materiais (INPE.LAS) %@affiliation Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Engenharia Elétrica (UNICAMP) %@affiliation Universidade de São Paulo, Instituto de Física (USP) %@project DIMARE: Diamante e materiais relacionados %B Diamond and Related Materials %P 1255-1259 %4 sid.inpe.br/marciana/2004/06.21.14.32 %D 1995 %V 4 %A Trava-Airoldi, Vladimir Jesus, %A Corat, Evaldo José, %A Peña, Angel Fidel Vilche, %A Leite, Nélia Ferreira, %A Baranauskas, Vitor, %A Salvadori, Maria Cecilia, %@dissemination WEBSCI; PORTALCAPES; COMPENDEX. %@ 0925-9635 %@area FISMAT
