CARS (coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy) detection of gaseous species for diamond deposition process
- Propulsion Science Lab., Hartford, CT (USA)
In order to understand the complicated chemical and physical processes that occur during the deposition of hard face coatings such as diamond, diagnostics that are remote, nonintrusive and sensitive to potential chemical species are necessary. One particularly promising approach is coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) useful for measurements of temperature and species concentrations. Results to be described will include CARS measurements on a PACVD reactor used for depositing high quality diamond films. A mixture of acetylene (C{sub 2}H{sub 2}) and Argon, tested over a range of total pressures down to 0.1 Torr, was used to calibrate the CARS system. With the existing CARS system, detectivity of C{sub 2}H{sub 2} to 5 mtorr was demonstrated. This paper describes details of the scanned narrowband colinear CARS system and examples of CARS spectra obtained for CH{sub 4} and C{sub 2}H{sub 2} species under rf PACVD diamond deposition conditions and also using an alternate filament assisted technique.
