Monocrystalline diamond layer and method for the production thereof

A method for the production of diamond films with little misorientation through deposition of diamond on a film system wherein the film system exhibits a substrate film comprising at least one of monocrystalline silicon and silicon carbide, at least one buffer film arranged on that, at least one metal film made of iridium arranged on that, and diamond deposited on the at least one metal film.

A method for producing a component in one of mechanics, micromechanics, electronics, microelectronics, optics, and surgery, the method comprising deposition of diamond on a film system wherein the film system exhibits a substrate film comprising at least one of monocrystalline silicon and silicon carbide, at least one buffer film arranged on that, at least one metal film made of iridium arranged on that, and diamond deposited on the at least one metal film.

A method for producing at least one of a cutting edge, a scalpel, a growth substrate for the epitaxial growth of at least one of semiconductor material and ferromagnetic material, a template for the production of diamond films with low misorientation, and a template for monocrystalline diamond film, the method comprising deposition of diamond on a film system wherein the film system exhibits a substrate film comprising at least one of monocrystalline silicon and silicon carbide, at least one buffer film arranged on that, at least one metal film made of iridium arranged on that, and diamond deposited on the at least one metal film.
