We investigate native nitrogen (NV) and silicon vacancy (SiV) color centers in commercially available, heteroepitaxial, wafer-sized, mm thick, single-crystal diamond. We observe single, native NV centers with a density of roughly 1 NV per…
The integration of high-thermal-conductivity diamond films onto silicon carbide (SiC) substrates offers a promising pathway for thermal management in high-power electronic devices. Here, we investigate the depth-dependent thermal…
In the present work we report about the investigation of the conduction mechanism of sp2 carbon micro-channels buried in single crystal diamond. The structures are fabricated with a novel technique which employs a MeV focused ion-beam to…
In pursuit of diamond nanoparticles, a capacitively-coupled radio frequency (CCRF) flow-through plasma reactor was operated with methane argon gas mixtures. Signatures of the final product obtained microscopically and spectroscopically…
The sharp optical resonances of NV- centers in diamond at cryogenic temperatures offer powerful new capabilities for material characterization, but extracting the most detailed information typically requires careful calibration of…
Diamond nucleation under very low pressure (0.1-1.0 torr) was obtained at very high nucleation densities and very rapid rates using hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD). The density on mirror-polished silicon was as high as 10^10…
We introduce a process for the fabrication of high quality, spatially isolated nano-diamonds on iridium via microwave plasma assisted CVD-growth. We perform spectroscopy of single silicon-vacancy (SiV)-centres produced during the growth of…
We explored the efficacy of lab-grown diamonds as potential target materials for the direct detection of sub-GeV dark matter~(DM) using metallic magnetic calorimeters~(MMCs). Diamond, with its excellent phononic properties and the low…

In situ plasma etching is a common method to prepare diamond substrates for epitaxial overgrowth to effectuate higher quality. However, there is no practical, direct, qualitative method established so far to assess the performance of the…
The local field approach and kinetic equation method is applied to calculate the surface plasmon radiative damping in a spheroidal metal nanoparticle embedded in any dielectric media. The radiative damping of the surface plasmon resonance…
Control of the crystalline orientation of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) defects in diamond is here demonstrated by tuning the temperature of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth on a (113)-oriented diamond substrate. We show that preferential…

Understanding the dynamics of molecules adsorbed to surfaces or confined to small volumes is a matter of increasing scientific and technological importance. Here, we demonstrate a pulse protocol using individual paramagnetic nitrogen…
Diamond thin films were growth using Tequila as precursor by Pulsed Liquid Injection Chemical Vapor Deposition (PLI-CVD) onto both silicon (100) and stainless steel 304 at 850 C. The diamond films were characterized by Scanning Electron…
Microwave plasmas are a promising technology for energy-efficient CO$_{2}$ valorization via conversion of CO$_{2}$ into CO and O$_2$ using renewable energies. A 2.45 GHz microwave plasma torch with swirling CO$_{2}$ gas flow is studied in a…
