Multiple substrate microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition single crystal diamond synthesis
A multiple substrate, microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition synthesis process for single crystal diamond (SCD) is demonstrated using a 915 MHz reactor. Diamond synthesis was performed using input chemistries of 6-8% of C H 4 ∕ H 2 , microwave input powers of 10 - 11.5 kW , substrate te...
