Laser and optical emission spectroscopies have been employed to study the gas phase chemistry in the growth environment for diamond chemical vapour deposition (CVO) in a microwave (MW) reactor. Computational investigations have also been used to explore the energetics of elementary reactions on a diamond surface, to give insight into which species are likely to incorporate into a growing diamond film. The focus of this thesis is on 0 and N containing CIH plasmas.
