Popis: By using the straight hot filament chemical vapor deposition method with one falt horizonatal filament, diamond films were rapidly grown on a scratched silicon substrate. Observing two kinds of interface structures of the samples by cross-section high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, we found that diamond {111}-oriented films are epitaxially grown on β-SiC{111} planes with a tilt angle of about 7° around the common [110] axis. We also found that diamond〈771〉 planes are parallel to silicon〈111〉 planes on which diamonds are directly epitaxially grown on silicon substrate. The interface dislocations are of either 60°-type or Schockley partial dislocation in relation to our observations.
