Nanocrystalline diamond films with bright photoluminescence of silicon-vacancy colour centres have been grown using a microwave plasma enhanced CVD technique. The influence of substrate material (quartz, Al2O3 , Mo and Si) on a reproducible fabrication of diamond thin films with Si-V optical centres is presented. Film quality and morphology are characterized by Raman spectroscopy and SEM technique. SEM shows well faceted diamond grains with sizes from 170 to 300 nm. The diamond peak is confirmed in Raman spectra for all samples. In the case of the quartz substrate, a redshift of the diamond peak is observed (≈ 3.5 cm−1 ) due to tension in the diamond film. Activation energies for the thermal quenching of Si-V centre photoluminescence were determined and the effect of the substrate on photoluminescence properties is discussed too.
