Diamond particles were distributed uniformly without any particle clustering, and no apparent porosities or significant casting defects were observed in the composites. The diamond-Al interfaces of as-cast and annealed diamond/2024 Al composites were clean, smooth and free from interfacial reaction product. However, a large number of Al2Cu precipitates were found at diamond-Al interface after aging treatment. Moreover, needle-shaped Al2MgCu precipitates in Al matrix were observed after aging treatment. The coefficient of thermal expansion （CTE） of diamond/2024 Al composites was about 8.5×10-6 °C-1 between 20 and 100 °C, which was compatible with that with chip materials. Annealing treatment showed little effect on thermal expansion behavior, and aging treatment could further decrease the CTE of the composites. The thermal conductivity of obtained diamond/2024 Al composites was about 100 W/（m？K）, and it was slightly increased after annealing while decreased after aging treatment.展开更多

Methods Dielectric properties (the frequency dependenCe of conductance, permittivity, and loss factor) of diamond film preped by DC are plasma jet chemical vapor deposition (CVD) were studied. Resuls Dielectric properties of CVD diamond fAn depend mainly on its polycrystalline nature, and the presence of non-diamond disordered graphitic regions and impurities between diamond grains of the film. Annealing at 500℃ leads to the removal of greater part of disordered graphitic regions, but am not remove all disordered graphitic regions and impurities. Conclusion Much work nab to be done tO prepare or post-treat diamond films before using CVD diamond as a substrate for electronic devices.展开更多

Experimental results in the machining of the Al-Si alloy with diamond coated inserts are presented. Considering the fact that high adhesive strength and fine surface morphology play an importance role in the applications of chemical vapor deposition （CVD） diamond films, multilayer technique combining the hot filament CVD （HFCVD） method is proposed, by which multilayer diamond-coating on silicon nitride inserts is obtained, microcrystalline diamond （MCD）/ nanocrystalline diamond （NCD） film. Also, the conventional monolayer NCD and MCD coated inserts are produced for comparison. The as-deposited diamond films are characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy （FE-SEM） and Raman spectrum. All the CVD diamond coated inserts and uncoated insert endure the aluminum-silicon alloy turning to estimate their cutting performances. Among all the tested inserts, the MCD/NCD coated insert exhibits the perfect behavior as tool wear due to its very low flank wear and no diamond peeling.展开更多
