Electronic Grade Plates
Element Six offers two types of Electronic grade diamond material - Single Crystal and Polycrystalline.
Single crystal Electronic grade is Element Six's highest purity commercially available material. Please contact us directly for more information.
Electronic Grade Single Crystal Plate

High purity CVD diamond plate suitable for electronic applications and quantum optics.
Plates are supplied with high quality, low damage polished surfaces.
These plates have the lowest NV centre density of all commercially available Element Six materials.

Electronic Grade Polycrystalline Plate

Developed over 10 years in association with leading research organisations in the electronics and detector community, Element Six polycrystalline electronic grade plates offer a high level of performance over a large surface area.
Large grain sizes coupled with low damage surface finishes have enabled development of surface electronic devices, for example Field Effect Transistors.
