摘要:
This invention relates to diamond and more particularly to diamond produced by chemical vapour deposition (hereinafter referred to as CVD). According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a layer of single crystal CVD diamond of high quality having a thickness of at least 2 mm.
摘要:
A single crystal diamond prepared by CVD and having one or more electronic characteristics; making the diamond suitable for electronic applications. Also provided is a method of making the single crystal CVD diamond.

摘要:
A detector for ionising radiation comprises first (10) and second (12) diamond detector elements which are connected to a common contact (14). The two detector elements are of differing thickness and are optimised for the detection of different types of radiation, so that the detector simultaneously provides two output signals indicative of different kinds of radiation incident on the detector.
摘要:
A window for a waveguide for a beam of electromagnetic radiation. The window includes a layer of a material capable of allowing electromagnetic radiation to pass therethrough and a support on each side of the layer. Each support defines a passage for electromagnetic radiation. Further, the layer is provided with at least one recess formed in the periphery thereof.
摘要:
In order to test whether a diamond has had a layer of synthetic diamond material deposited thereon, infrared radiation including radiation of wavelength substantially 7 .mu.m to 25 .mu.m preferably 7 .mu.m to 10 .mu.m emitted or transmitted by the diamond is observed, to detect differences between the compositions of different zones of the diamond.
