Cavity ring-down spectroscopy has been used to measure the absorbances, concentrations and temperatures of C2(a3Πu v=0) and CH(X2Π v=0) radicals in a ⩽10 kW dc arc jet used for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of polycrystalline diamond films and operated with CH4/H2/Ar gas mixtures. Gas temperatures derived from the intensities and widths of rotationally resolved C2 d3Πg−a3Πu spectral lines are 3300±200 K in the free plume, rising to ∼4800 K close to the substrate on which the diamond film is grown. For an input power of ∼6 kW, a 3.3% CH4/H2 ratio with excess Ar and a pressure of 50 Torr, the conditions typically employed for diamond film CVD, concentrations of C2(a) are between 6.0±0.2×1012 and 1.5±0.2×1013 cm−3 in the free plume at distances >5 mm from the substrate. These values are derived assuming a 1 cm column length as implied by spatially resolved studies of C2(d−a) optical emission; the spread reflects the decline in performance of the arc jet torch heads over time. The concentration of CH(X) in ...
