Abstract
N‐ and P‐co‐ion implantation enhances the electrical conductivity of nanocrystalline diamond films to 6.9 s cm−1 and improves the microplasma illumination (MI) characteristics of the films to a low breakdown voltage of 340 V, large plasma current density of 6.3 mA cm−2 (@510 V) with plasma life‐time stability of 10 h. N ions induce nanographitic phases in the films and P ions lower the resistance at the diamond‐to‐Si interface together promoting the conducting channels for effective electron transport, consequently attaining the improved MI properties of the films.
