Title:
DIAMOND COATED SURFACES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006043157
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method of producing a diamond coated surface on a substrate. A surface of the substrate is prepared by exposing it to a power beam, such as an electron beam, to increase the surface area and surface roughness. Such preparation may also provide the surface with three dimensional features onto which a diamond layer can adhere and mechanically lock. Adhesion of a diamond layer applied to the prepared surface is increased.
