The gas mixture used for diamond growth was 1 vol.% methane, 9 vol.% hydrogen and 90 vol.% argon at a total flow rate of 200 sccm and at a total pressure of 30 Torr. The substrate temperature range was from 550 to 850 °C at deposition time of 8 h. Mass growth rate was determined at different deposition temperatures. The activation energy for UNCD growth, determined from the Arrhenius plot, was lower (5.7 kcal/mol) than the values found for standard diamond deposition (around 11 kcal/mol). In this work, we suggest that the activation energy was lower because the growth of these films occurs at conditions that there is a high growth competition between diamond phase and sp2 phases. To support this hypothesis, systematic characterization studies based on Raman scattering spectroscopy, high-resolution X-ray diffractometry and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy were performed. %@mirrorrepository sid.inpe.br/mtc-m19@80/2009/08.21.17.02.53 %8 Oct. %N 10 %T Influence of substrate temperature on formation of ultrananocrystalline diamond films deposited by HFCVD argon-rich gas mixture %@secondarytype PRE PI %K Diamond, HFCVD, Activation energy, Growth kinetics, sp2 growth. %@group LAS-CTE-INPE-MCT-BR %@group %@group %@group LAS-CTE-INPE-MCT-BR %@group LAS-CTE-INPE-MCT-BR %@group LAS-CTE-INPE-MCT-BR %@secondarykey INPE--PRE/ %@secondarymark B2_ASTRONOMIA_/_FÍSICA A1_ENGENHARIAS_II A1_ENGENHARIAS_III B2_ENGENHARIAS_IV A1_MATERIAIS %@issn 0925-9635 %2 sid.inpe.br/mtc-m19@80/2009/12.10.13.17.56 %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@affiliation Ceramics Glass Engineering Department, University of Aveiro %@affiliation Ceramics Glass Engineering Department, University of Aveiro %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %B Diamond and Related Materials %P 1283-1288 %4 sid.inpe.br/mtc-m19@80/2009/12.10.13.17 %D 2009 %V 18 %@doi 10.1016/j.diamond.2009.05.002 %A Barbosa, Divani Carvalho, %A Almeida, F.
