“…However, they were finally found to be highly unstable under CVD plasma conditions 11 and graphite precursors, like polycyclic aromatics, may constitute possible precursors due to their higher stability. 12 In particular cases, a few experimental studies reported diamond formation in the gas phase [13][14][15] and some hexagonal diamond was even collected.…”

The controlled growth of ultra-thin diamond layers on a diversity of substrates is a major challenge for many technological applications (heat spreaders, electromechanical systems, etc.). This explains the huge effort produced during the last two decades to master the early stages of diamond formation. Two main pathways have been investigated in the literature. The nucleation pathway aims to produce diamond nuclei, i.e., the smallest thermodynamically stable diamond islands, at the substrate surface. This is mainly performed by in situ treatments preceding diamond chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth, such as bias enhanced nucleation (BEN). The second approach consists of skipping the nucleation stage by covering, ex situ, the substrate with diamond nanoparticles, which act as seeds for diamond CVD growth. The present chapter is a review of these pathways. Their respective benefits and drawbacks are discussed. Finally, these two approaches appear very complementary. Seeding allows the growth of ultra-thin diamond layers on large non-conductive substrates with micrometric patterns. On the other hand, the BEN in situ nucleation treatment remains the favored technique to achieve well-adherent diamond films and diamond heteroepitaxy.

Molekul-Mechanik-oder Kraftfeld-Rechnungen konnen zur Klarung vieler experimenteller Probleme herangezogen werden: Zur Untersuchung der Molekuldynamik (Konformationsanalyse und innere Rotation), zur Suche nach den stabilsten Isomeren von Kohlenwasserstoffen und zur Berechnung von Reaktivitaten einschlieBlich der Solvolyse von Briickenkopf-substituierten Derivaten wurden derartige Rechnungen ebenso angestellt wie zur Aufklarung des Mechanismus vielstufiger Umlagerungen uber Carbokationen und der Struktur von Anti-Bredt-Olefinen; sie ermoglichen auch eine Erklarung der Selektivitat bei der Hydrogenolyse gespannter Polycyclen mit kleinen Ringen oder langer Bindungen, die Deutung elektronischer Effekte sowie die Analyse spater Ubergangszustande und der Produktverteilung bei komplizierten Reaktionen.
