The highly oriented diamond particles were deposited on the mirror-polished (100) silicon substrates in the bell-jar type microwave plasma deposition system using a three-step process consisting if carburization, bias-enhanced nucleation and growth. By adjusting the geometry of the substrate and substrate holder, very dense disc-shaped plasma was formed over the substrate when the bias voltage was below -200V. Almsot perfectly oriented diamond films were obtained only in this dense disc-shaped plasma. From the results of the optical emission spectra of the dense disc-shaped plasma, it was found that the concentrations of atomic hydrogen and hydrocarbon radical were increased with negative bias voltage. It was also found that the highly oriented diamonds were deposited in the region, where the intensity ratios of carbonaceous species to atomic hydrogen are saturated.
