    摘要: Broadly, the present invention is directed to polycrystalline diamond of improved thermal conductivity. The novel polycrystalline diamond consists essentially of at least 99.5 wt-% isotopically-pure carbon-12 or carbon-13. The inventive polycrystalline diamond is formed from at least 99.5 wt-% isotopically-pure carbon-12 or carbon-13. Single-crystal isotopically-pure carbon-12 and carbon-13 diamond are known to possess improved thermal conductivity. Polycrystalline diamond, however, possesses lower thermal conductivity patterns deleteriously impacted by, for example, impurities, isotopic effects, and grain boundary scattering. In fact, grain boundary scattering would lead the skilled artisan to believe that the thermal conductivity of polycrystalline diamond would be substantially unaffected by the isotopic nature of the diamond itself. Unexpectedly, however, isotopic effects were discovered to predominate in impacting the thermal conductivity of polycrystalline diamond consisting essentially of isotopically-pure carbon-12 or carbon-13. This is true whether the isotopically-pure polycrystalline diamond is grown directly or whether individual isotopically-pure carbon-12 or carbon 13 diamond crystals are subjected to sintering for forming a polycrystalline structure, e.g. layer or compact, thereof.

    摘要: The bond strength between a diamond and the substrate onto which it is deposited by the chemical vaporization method is decreased to the point where the diamond can be removed from the substrate as a free standing monolithic sheet. The bond strength can be decreased by polishing the substrate, removing corners from the substrate, slow cooling of the substrate after deposition, an intermediate temperature delay in cooling or the application or formation of an intermediate layer between the diamond and the substrate. The free standing sheet of diamond can be used as a laser lens, metallized to form a mirror, or silver soldered to tungsten carbide to form a cutting tool.

    摘要: Substantially transparent polycrystalline diamond film is provided having a thickness greater than 50 microns which can be used in glazing applications and as a heat sink in microelectric applications. A mixture of hydrogen and methane is conveyed into a heat filament reaction zone which is adjacent to an appropriate substrate, such as a molybdenum substrate to produce non-adherent polycrystalline substantially transparent diamond film.

    摘要: The present invention enables the diamond coating of stationary elongate objects, such as twist drills, with a continuous uniform film without any motion of the twist drill due to the unexpected superb "throwing power" of a reactor disclosed herein. The CVD diamond reactor includes a vacuum chamber, inlet for feed hydrogen/hydrocarbon mixtures, and an outlet, in conventional fashion. The improvement for coating with CVD diamond the entire outer surface of at least a portion of a plurality of stationary elongate objects comprises disposed within said reactor, an elongate metal tube having a plurality of apertures for holding elongate objects disposed radially inwardly and having a cooling pipe in thermal contact with and disposed about the outside of said metal tube; and a filament running within said tube along its lengthwise extent and being in electrical connection with the source of voltage for heating said filament to a temperature adequate to initiate hydrocarbon disassociation, the portions of said elongate object within said tube surrounding said filament being heated thereby.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a twist drill which is coated with a layer of CVD diamond and which has slots in its head which are filled with CVD diamond. The invention twist drill is made by forming slots in the head of the twist drill and then subjecting the slotted twist drill to a CVD diamond deposition process for coating said twist drill with a layer of CVD diamond and for filling said slots with CVD diamond. The performance of CVD diamond-coated twist drills does not depend on retaining the diamond film over most of the areas of the drill; but, rather, drill performance is dependent upon retaining a layer of diamond on the cutting edge of the drill. The diamond-filled slots in the head of the twist drill function as wear stops and additional cutting edges as the surrounding drill material is worn away during use.
