Purchase Guide (Mandatory Reading)

We are glad that you have reached this page. We recommend that you read through the following information carefully before contacting our sales representatives.

If you are purchasing diamond products for the first time, please confirm the information below in detail and then provide it to our sales team.


  1. Monocrystalline Diamond or Polycrystalline Diamond?

Differences Between Monocrystalline and Polycrystalline Diamonda. For small-sized products (≤10×10 mm), the unit price of monocrystalline diamond is similar to that of polycrystalline diamond. However, polycrystalline diamond can be grown up to 6 inches in size, while the maximum size of monocrystalline diamond available domestically is only 2 inches currently. Therefore, if you are purchasing large-sized diamond and have a limited budget, polycrystalline diamond is recommended as the priority option.b. Monocrystalline diamond has higher thermal conductivity.c. Monocrystalline diamond is easier to polish than polycrystalline diamond. Monocrystalline diamond can be polished to a roughness of 0.5 nm–2 nm, whereas polycrystalline diamond requires ion beam refinement to achieve the same level of roughness. Generally, the roughness of polished and lapped polycrystalline diamond is 5 nm–10 nm.


2. Optical Grade or Thermal Grade

Both single-crystal and polycrystalline diamonds are divided into optical grade and thermal grade diamonds. The difference is that optical grade diamonds are transparent and have fewer impurities and black spots in the crystal. The differences are shown in the image below.
Thermal grade:


Optical Grade:



3. Which grade of thermal grade diamond to choose

Whether it's polycrystalline or single-crystal diamond, thermal conductivity is generally divided into four levels: 1200 W/m·K, 1500 W/m·K, 1800 W/m·K, and 2000 W/m·K. Higher thermal conductivity means a higher price.


4. Do you have diamonds with a {111} crystal orientation?

The largest size of {111} crystal orientation diamond we can currently provide is 5mm x 5mm, single-crystal diamond with {111} orientation.


5.Which sizes and thicknesses of diamonds should I choose?

For single-crystal diamonds, we can generally provide up to 1 inch in size, while for polycrystalline diamonds, we can provide up to 4 inches. The typical thickness is 0.3mm or 0.5mm. For thicker diamonds, regrowth is required. The thinnest diamond we can achieve is 0.1mm.

If this is your first time using them, we recommend purchasing 10x10mm - 0.5mm single-crystal or polycrystalline diamonds.


6.Should I choose single-sided polishing, double-sided polishing, or just grinding?

The processing flow for diamonds is grinding - polishing. After grinding, the roughness of polycrystalline diamonds is 200-500nm, and after polishing, the roughness reaches 5-10nm. After cutting single-crystal diamonds (with laser cutting marks), the roughness is 200-500nm. After grinding (matte surface, without laser cutting marks), the roughness is 100-500nm. After polishing, the roughness can reach 0.5-2nm.


Polycrystalline diamonds can be ion-beam polished to below 0.5nm, and single-crystal diamonds can be ion-beam polished to below 0.3nm.


"Therefore, when you decide to purchase diamonds, please confirm the following:

  1. Optical grade or thermal grade (what is the required thermal conductivity?)

  2. Size, size tolerance (default tolerance is ±0.1mm unless otherwise specified), thickness, thickness tolerance (default tolerance is ±0.30μm unless otherwise specified)

  3. TTV (Total Thickness Variation), Warp (leave blank if no specific requirement)

  4. Single-sided polishing, double-sided polishing, or just grinding, roughness requirements

  5. Quantity needed


If you're still uncertain, we recommend a few commonly used specifications for you:

10-10-0.5 single-crystal, double-sided polishing, Ra0.5nm, optical grade ---- for optical use

10-10-0.5 polycrystalline, single-sided polishing, 10nm, 1500 thermal conductivity ---- for thermal use"

MPCVD (Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition) diamond wafers are synthetic diamonds produced through Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technology, with a wide range of applications and unique physical properties.


Manufacturing Process:

  1. Preparation:

    • Substrate Selection: Typically, single-crystal silicon, single-crystal diamond, or other suitable substrate materials are chosen.

    • Substrate Cleaning: The substrate is cleaned using chemical reagents (such as acidic solutions) to ensure the surface is free from contaminants.

  2. Reaction Chamber Preparation:

    • Reactor: An MPCVD reactor is used, which includes a microwave source, reaction chamber, and gas supply system.

    • Gas Preparation: Common gases used include methane (CH4) and hydrogen (H2), with a typical ratio of 1:99 to 5:95.

  3. Deposition Process:

    • Reaction Conditions: Inside the reaction chamber, plasma is generated by microwave excitation, with the temperature usually controlled between 800°C and 1200°C.

    • Gas Flow Rate: The flow rate and ratio of gases are precisely controlled, allowing carbon atoms in methane to decompose and deposit onto the substrate to form a diamond thin film.

  4. Post-Processing:

    • Annealing: After deposition, annealing is typically required to improve the crystal quality and stability of the diamond thin film.

    • Surface Treatment: Depending on the specific application, the diamond surface may be polished or treated to achieve the desired surface flatness and smoothness.

Classification:

MPCVD diamond wafers are classified into the following categories based on their purity, grain size, and applications:


1. Single-Crystal Diamond (SCD):

  • Characteristics: Excellent electronic properties and optical performance.

  • Applications: Widely used in high-power electronic devices, optical components, and quantum computing.

2. Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD):
