A riveting look at the science, technology and people involved in overcoming early impracticalities of the fledgling chemical vapor deposition (CVD) synthesis method and its development in today's state of commercial readiness. Provides insights into numerous vapor phase techniques. Surveys the synthesis, structure, properties and applications of diamondlike carbon. Details current and rapidly emerging applications, manufacturing and markets. Booknews Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) makes diamond, and its high- performance properties, available in thin sheets or coatings, which can cover large areas in a variety of unique shapes. This volume traces the origins and emergence of the process and reviews the current scientific and technical status of the new CVD techniques. It provides a survey of the synthesis, structure, properties, and applications of diamond-like carbon; a description and extended review of the properties and characterization of diamond; an in-depth look at current and potential applications for synthetic diamond; and a comparative economic assessment of the CVD process and the traditional high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) process.
