VERFAHREN ZUM EINBRINGEN EINER MARKIERUNG IN EINEN CVD-DIAMANTEN

摘要

A method of producing a CVD single crystal diamond layer on a substrate includes adding into a DVD synthesis atmosphere a gaseous source comprising silicon. The method can be used to mark the diamond material, for instance to provide means by which its synthetic nature can more easily be determined. It can also be exploited to generate single crystal diamond material of high color.
