Abstract
Diamond offers a range of unique properties, including wide band of optical transmission, highest thermal conductivity, stiffness, wear resistance and superior electronic properties. Such high-end properties are not found in any other material, so theoretically it can be used in many technological applications. But the shortcoming has been the synthesis of the diamond material in the laboratory for any meaningful use. Although microwave plasma chemical vapour deposited (MPCVD) has been in practice since 1980s for the diamond growth but it is in the past 7-8 years that its potential has been realised by the industry due to capability of MPCVD to deposit diamond, pure and fast, for commercial uses. There are many CVD techniques for growing diamond but among them MPCVD can only make single crystal diamond (SCD) effectively. SCD grown by MPCVD is also superior to other forms of diamond produced in the laboratory. For example, SCD is neces...
