Texture Analysis of Poly(vinyl Chloride) Foils

Abstract:

The crystallographic textures of the free-standing diamond films which were synthesized by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using a CH4/H2/Ar gas mixtures have been investigated. Texture components of the diamond films are analyzed with pole figures and orientation distribution function (ODF). The surface morphology of the diamond films grown at different substrate temperatures as well as different gas concentrations is observed with scanning electron microscopy.(SEM). The experimental results indicate that the intensity of {110} fibre texture becomes much higher with the increase of the substrate temperature. It is considered that the higher multiplicity of <110> crystallographic direction in diamond octahedron leads to the higher appearance possibility of {110} fibre texture and the final texture components of the diamond films depend upon the CVD deposition parameters.
