A METHOD OF FABRICATING SINGLE CRYSTAL SYNTHETIC DIAMOND PRODUCTS AND SINGLE CRYSTAL SYNTHETIC DIAMOND PRODUCTS FABRICATED USING SAID METHOD

摘要

A single crystal CVD synthetic diamond product comprising: a flat base; a tip; sloped side walls extending between the flat base and the tip; and a thickness from the flat base to the tip of at least 1.3mm, wherein the flat base forms a plane which lies within 20^o of a {110} crystallographic plane, and wherein dislocation defects extend through the single crystal CVD synthetic diamond product in a direction from the flat base to the tip with an average direction of the dislocation defects lying within 20^o of a direction perpendicular to the plane of the flat base.
