Revolutionizing Diamond Processing: Laser Technology Brings High Precision And Efficiency To Industry

Opportunities in Diamond Laser Processing

01 Diamond – The “Best” and Also the “Worst” Material
Diamond is hailed as the "best" material; however, it is also the "worst" for processing. With numerous excellent properties, it is widely used in industries such as optics, electronics, medical, and jewelry, but its processing has always been a tough issue. Whether it's processing efficiency, precision, or cost, diamond is considered the "worst" material to process.

Key Characteristics of Diamond:

• Extremely High Hardness: Ideal for cutting tools and surgical blades.

• Extremely High Thermal Conductivity: Suitable for high-temperature electronic devices and heat dissipation substrates.

• Excellent Irradiation Stability and Chemical Inertness: Used in optical devices and biomedical applications.

• Wide Spectrum Transmittance: Applied in optical and microwave devices.

  
  

Key Processing Methods for Diamond
Laser Processing of Diamond
The extremely high hardness of diamond makes it an ideal material for cutting tools and surgical blades. However, this also means that traditional machining methods struggle with cutting it. Laser processing emerges as a solution, as the laser's irradiation focuses on the diamond surface, rapidly raising the temperature. High temperatures lead to defective lattice structures, causing a graphite phase change and achieving an ablation cutting effect. Gas assistance is then used to remove the generated slag powder, ensuring the quality of the processing and achieving the desired result.

In various industrial applications, from the core extraction and slicing of MPCVD raw materials, to cutting materials for jewelry, and polishing, cutting, and rough machining of industrial heat dissipation substrates and industrial tools, diamond's presence is ubiquitous. Laser processing gives diamond even more possibilities, especially for workpieces that require complex shapes and fine structures, where its processing efficiency and precision are superior.

Traditional Processing Challenges:Due to its extreme hardness, traditional cutting methods are inefficient.

Advantages of Laser Processing:Using the instant high-temperature action of the laser, high-efficiency, and high-precision processing can be achieved.

Processing Technology:From core extraction, slicing to applications across various industries, laser processing provides diamond with broader possibilities.

02 Challenges in Diamond Laser Production and Processing
Diamond, as a material, faces a series of challenges in industrial production when processed using lasers. While diamond has extreme hardness and excellent thermal conductivity, processing it remains difficult.

In conclusion, diamond laser industrial production and processing face many challenges, requiring constant exploration and innovation to improve processing efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure processing quality and safety, thereby enabling the widespread application of diamond in industrial fields.
