Kobashi has documented such discussions with a strong focus on how diamond films can be best utilised as an industrial material, working from the premise that crystal diamond films can be made by chemical vapour disposition. Kobashi provides information on the process and characterization technologies of oriented and heteroepitaxial growth of diamond filmsElectronic reproduction.Amsterdam :Elsevier Science & Technology,2007.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Web browser.Title from title screen (viewed on July 25, 2007).Access may be restricted to users at subscribing institutionsDiamonds, ArtificialDiamond thin filmsElectronic books.localOriginal00804472369780080447230(OCoLC)63185437Referexhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780080447230An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information.b1365271003-03-2224-01-08991003233349707536Diamond films1212843UNISALENTOle02624-01-08m@ -engne 00
