Abstract

A study of boron diffusion into diamond lattice was performed. Diffusion was made in hydrogen atmosphere at 30 torr. Two type IIa diamonds were heated at 1200 and 1400 °C for 20 hours and 5 minutes, respectively. Boron powder was used as a dopant source. The boron concentration profiles of both samples were measured by secondary ion mass spectrometry. Based on Fick's law, the diffusion coefficients were computed.
