THE SMART TRICK OF OPTICAL GRADE SINGLE CRYSTAL DIAMOND CRYSTAL THAT NOBODY IS DISCUSSING

This paper describes polished CVD polycrystalline diamond elements, numerous in surplus of one mm in thickness, being developed during the sizes and geometries required for many infrared window and dome applications. For instance, 100 mm diameter flats can now be fabricated routinely and 70 mm diameter hemispherical shells are being formulated. It
