Synthetic diamond film production. Engineer with a machine used to synthesise a synthetic diamond film for use in medical applications,such as radiotherapy dosimeters,and artificial retinas. Diamond is the only known inert material that is also a semiconductor and it is this property that makes them suitable for use in and around the human body. A layer of silicon is placed in a chamber (seen here) and a mixture of hydrogen and methane,heated using microwaves,is injected into it. This forms a plasma gas,which is deposited on the substrate as a film. Photographed at CEA LIST,Paris,France | |
