Here, we report on the bulk acoustic waves(BAWs) and surface acoustic waves(SAWs) of single-crystal diamond using angle-resolved Brillouin light scattering(BLS) spectroscopy. We identify two high-speed surface skimming bulk waves(SSBW) with acoustic velocities of 1.277×10^(6) and 1.727×10^(6) cm/s, respectively. Furthermore, we obtain the relationship between the velocity of arbitrary BAWs and that of BAWs propagating along the high-symmetric axis at different incident angles. In the community of diamond-based acoustic studies, our results may provide a valuable reference for fundamental research and device engineering.展开更多
