Background:

Single-crystal diamond nanostructures are valuable for various applications.
Conventional methods for producing diamond nanostructures face limitations in scalability and substrate compatibility.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the feasibility of using hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (HF CVD) for fabricating single-crystal diamond pyramids.
To compare the characteristics of diamond pyramids produced by HF CVD with those made by plasma-enhanced CVD (PE CVD).

Main Methods:

Fabrication of micrometer-scale diamond pyramids using a combination of HF CVD and thermal oxidation.
Characterization of diamond pyramids using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for morphology, Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy.

Main Results:

HF CVD successfully produced single-crystal diamond pyramids with regular shapes.
Morphological, Raman, and photoluminescent characteristics of HF CVD-produced diamonds were similar to those produced by PE CVD.
The study elucidated the diamond film growth mechanism for both HF CVD and PE CVD methods.

Conclusions:

HF CVD is a promising technique for large-area fabrication of single-crystal diamond pyramids, even on non-conducting substrates.
The findings demonstrate the potential for mass production of single-crystal needle-like diamonds using HF CVD.
This advancement is crucial for the practical application of diamond nanostructures.
