What is the difference between MPCVD and HFCVD? (4 Key Points Explained)

When it comes to producing diamond films, two main methods are often discussed: Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition (MPCVD) and Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition (HFCVD).

4 Key Points Explained

What is the difference between MPCVD and HFCVD? (4 Key Points Explained)

1. Operational Mechanisms

MPCVD uses microwave energy to generate plasma.

HFCVD uses a hot filament to heat a gas mixture.

2. Purity of Diamond Films

MPCVD avoids contamination risks associated with hot filaments.

This results in higher purity and better uniformity in the diamond films produced by MPCVD.

HFCVD is prone to contamination from the filament material, which can reduce the purity of the diamond film.

3. Versatility and Control

MPCVD allows for the use of multiple gases in the reaction system, enhancing its versatility for different industrial applications.

MPCVD is known for producing large area films with good uniformity, high purity, and excellent crystal morphology.

HFCVD is simpler in equipment and easier to control, but it generally has a faster diamond film growth rate.

4. Cost and Quality

MPCVD offers more controlled and versatile gas mixtures, leading to superior diamond films.

HFCVD is more susceptible to contamination and filament degradation, which can affect the quality and cost-effectiveness of the diamond films.
