Physics and Applications of CVD Diamond

Satoshi Koizumi is Senior Researcher at the National Institute for Materials Science, Japan. As a member of the Super Diamond Group he is working on synthesis and characterization of diamond and cubic boron nitride (cBN), both high potential materials for electronic devices.

Christoph Nebel is Team Leader at the Diamond Research Center oft the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Japan. His research work concentrates on characterization and development of nano-structured multi-array bio-sensors and field emission devices, both based on diamond. After owning positions at the Xerox Research Laboratories, Palo Alto/USA, and the Walter Schottky Insitute at the Technical University of Munich/Germany, he moved to Japan to continue his research on diamond.

Milos Nesladek is Professor at the University of Hasselt in Belgium and Senior Researcher at the Saclay Research Center of the Atomic Energy Commissariat (CEA), France. His main interests include PE CVD growth, optical characterisation and defect spectroscopy of diamond films and novel electronic materials.
