An investigation of the surface reactivity of diamond photocathodes with molecular and atomic oxygen species

The surface reactivity of CVD diamond films, which function as UV photocathodes, with thermal and electronically excited O2, as well as atomic oxygen, has been explored. The CVD films show a low, but measurable reactivity with O2, which increases markedly with electronic excitation, to form dilute o...
