Diamond by CVD

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-003128",
  "term": "Diamond by CVD",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "Diamond material synthesized using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques. In this process, carbon-containing gases are decomposed at high temperatures and low pressures, allowing carbon atoms to deposit onto a substrate and form diamond crystals. CVD diamond can be produced as thin films or freestanding plates with properties similar to natural diamond.",
