Diamond films grown by activated chemical vapor deposition have
superlative thermal, mechanical, optical, and electronic properties
combined with a very high degree of chemical inertness to most
environments. These properties, together with the ability to
fabricate films and shapes of considerable size, promise an
exciting new material with many applications. Some applications are
on the verge of commercialization but many await a few more
technological developments. Diamond-like films are already employed
in both commercial and military applications. The popular press, as
well as the scientific and technological and industrial
communities, are increasingly interested in the potential for
future development of these materials. Although there are many
technical papers and review articles published, there is no Single
comprehensive introduction to these technologies. The Scientific
Affairs Division of NATO recognized the need and the future
importance of these technologies and authorized an Advanced Study
Institute on diamond and diamond-like films. NATO Advanced Study
Institutes are high level teaching activities at which a carefully
defined subject is presented in a systematic and coherently
structured program. The subject is treated in considerable depth by
lecturers eminent in their fields and of international standing.
The presentations are made to students who are scientists in the
field or who possess an advanced general scientific background.
