Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Semiconducting diamond possesses superlative physical properties, which is attracted as next-generation power devices. Toward its industrial use, this start-up research focused on the synthesis of low-resistivity diamond wafers by hot filament chemical vapor deposition. By controlling the substrate temperature and gas pressure appropriately, unepitaxially grown grains were effectively suppressed. As a result, free-standing undoped plates were successfully fabricated for the first time. The crystalline quality evaluated by X-ray rocking curve was 40 arcsec, which is comparable to commercially available substrates. Hot filament CVD possesses large potential for scaling-up, enabling the innovative wafer production of low-resistivity materials.
