Abstract: Recent developments in producing large single crystal CVD diamond plates are reviewed. The developments consist of synthesis of large single crystal diamond and production of single crystal diamond plates from the bulk diamond by the lift-off process. Combining these developments, half-inch single crystal CVD diamond plates have been successfully produced.

Abstract: Multiple P or S hot ion implantation to diamond substrates was performed at 800°C. Optical absorption spectra indicated that instantaneous annealing during hot ion implantation occurs. Temperature dependence of resistance demonstrated that a P as-implanted sample using a homoepitaxial diamond film substrate emerges a weak doping effect. Also on S implantation, a presence of a weak doping effect was observed in an as-implanted sample, but it was suggested that the dopant is not S itself but S and defect complex. However, post-implantation annealing resulted in high resistance of the samples and missing of such weak doping effects.
