Applied Diamond Capabilities

Synthetic diamond, made by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), is a fast growing, cost effective material. Delivering the superior properties of diamond in larger sizes, at a lower cost and with increased post- processing capabilities; CVD Diamond has replaced less effective materials in existing industries and become the chosen material for challenging next generation applications.

Thermal conductivity can be tailored to the needs of the customer with three ranges:

  • Low - black diamond 700-800 w/mK
  • Medium - opaque diamond 900-1000 w/mK
  • High - optically clear diamond 1700-1800 w/mK

Customized sizes for unique applications

Applied Diamond has several microwave plasma reactors on-site for diamond growth on 2, 2.5 and 3” wafers. Free standing diamond can be grown to thicknesses ranging from 80 um to 1mm. Specific diameters and geometries can be laser cut to produce custom parts for unique applications. We can grow diamond as thin as 30 nm directly on Si as a membrane or supported by a lattice structure.

Standard thicknesses:

  • 150 um
  • 300 um
  • 500 um

Post-processing techniques for specific requirements

Applied Diamond also has diamond polishing equipment to make the surface finish of materials highly smooth, less than 10 nm PV if required by the customer. Additional post-processing capabilities include metalization for bonding, mounting to a flange for vacuum and pressure applications and brazing.

Strong, affordable material for a variety of uses

Whether it's thermal management, optical transmission or thin diamond applications, CVD diamond has become the optimal material of choice. CVD diamond is presently used in a variety of industries including defense, electronics, homeland security and medical.
