    摘要: A cutter for a drill bit and method of manufacturing same is disclosed. The cutter has a non-leached polycrystalline diamond (PCD) table bonded to a substrate and a leached PCD table bonded to one or both of the substrate and non-leached PCD table. The leached PCD table may be ring-shaped and acts as the working surface of the cutting element. It may have a jagged inner surface which cooperates with complementary jagged-shaped outer surface of the non-leached PCD table to prevent rotation of the leached PCD table relative to the non-leached PCD table during a cutting operation. A surface of the leached PCD table may be tapered and fit together in a complementary manner with an oppositely tapered surface of the non-leached PCD table so as to mechanically lock the leached PCD table to the non-leached PCD table.
