Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein are methods of manufacturing synthetic CVD diamond material including orienting and controlling process gas flow in a microwave plasma reactor to improve performance. The microwave plasma reactor includes a gas flow system with a gas inlet comprising one or more gas inlet nozzles disposed opposite the growth surface area and configured to inject process gases towards the growth surface area. The method comprises injecting process gases towards the growth surface area at a total gas flow rate equal to or greater than 500 standard cm3 per minute wherein the process gases are injected into the plasma chamber through the one or more gas inlet nozzles with a Reynolds number in a range 1 to 100.
