In comparison with polycrystalline diamond, single crystal diamond (SC CVD) offers important advantages for applications to electronics and detection. This is because SC CVD diamond exhibits improved charge transport characteristics, specifically a high drift mobility and an increased charge carrier lifetime. So far, only limited studies have dealt with the measurements of electrical transport parameters in SC diamond and majority of these studies were based on industrial material only. In our study we have investigated the electrical transport properties of PE CVD SC diamond grown using relatively high pressure growth conditions and high deposition growth rates (typically 20 μm/hour) by two independent methods: the laser Time‐of‐Flight (TOF) and the alpha particle TOF techniques. Raman spectroscopy, defect spectroscopy were used to characterize the quality of the samples prepared. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

The short analysis of the assessment opportunities is presented for the resource efficiency in various industries and particularly in the foundry production. The developed algorithm of carrying out such assessment is presented. It is shown that such algorithm consists of five steps. They are the formation of the evaluating team, the choice of the technology or a product, the analysis of the chain creation of the added value for a technology or a product, the assessment of the current state of the technology or a product, developing the recommendations for the improvement of the efficiency of resources use. This article describes in detail the works, which need to be carried out at each stage of evaluating the resource efficiency. The evaluating map and the criteria are developed for comparing different types of the foundry technologies as well as the map for assessing the current state of the foundry technology. The result of the accomplished assessment with the described algorithm is the developed recommendations on the use of the enterprise resources.
