Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a diamond electronic device comprising a functional surface formed by a planar surface of a single crystal diamond, the planar surface of the single crystal diamond having an Rq of less than 10 nm and at least one of the following characteristics: (a) the surface has not been mechanically processed since formation by synthesis; (b) the surface is an etched surface; (c) a density of dislocations in the diamond breaking the surface is less than 400 cm″2 measured over an area greater than 0.014 cm2; (d) the surface has an Rq less than 1 nm; (e) the surface has regions with a layer of charge carriers immediately below it, such that the regions of the surface are normally termed conductive, such as a hydrogen terminated {100} diamond surface region; (f) the surface has regions with no layer of charge carriers immediately below it, such that these regions of the surface are normally termed insulating, such as an oxygen terminated {100} diamond surface; and (g) the surface has one or more regions of metallization providing electrical contact to the diamond surface beneath these regions.
