With a smooth background a surface finish is achieved which was not technically possible in the diamond area until now. New applications are feasible through this (e. g. coating of measuring sensors). In addition applications are possible in the decorative area, which were until now only achievable with expensive finishing. |
| transparency |
complete optical transparency through a very wide spectrum range. |
limited transparency through grain borders. |
Practically no optical applications are possible with alternative applications. Expensive finishing for the achieving of optical qualities is not necessary. |
| purity |
diamond share greater 99,99% (detection limit) |
diamond share approx. 90% |
Characteristics of natural diamond such as for example, heat conductivity, electrical insulating, chemical resistance, lower coefficient of friction are also characteristics of diamond coatings through this. Important with optical and electronic applications. |
| electrical conductivity |
no measurable conductivity |
conductivity in the range of 1*10-7S/m |
JThe more conductive a "diamond coating" the less the purity of the coating.This is a critical parameter, especially for electrical applications. |
