Definitions
- the present invention pertains to the combinatorial synthesis of the diamond unit cell and man-made diamond masses produced therefrom.
- Diamond is a valuable material due its properties of hardness (10 on the Mohs hardness scale), heat stability, high room temperature thermal conductivity (about 2000 W/mK), very low rms vibration at room temperature (0.002 nm), a high index of refraction (2.4), optical transparency from infrared through visible, and UV fluorescence. Because of its high band gap (5.45 eV) it is a superb electrical insulator (10 16 ohms). Boron-doped (blue) diamond has been found to be p-type semiconductor having a high hole mobility and electrical breakdown strength. Such properties may afford diamond utility with respect to substrates for micro-electronic devices, ultraviolet light protective coatings, high energy laser device windows, and even diamond semiconductor devices. Such applications require that diamond be ultra-pure.
- the present invention provides diamond unit cells and diamond masses made therefrom.
- Combinatorial Synthesis as used herein means the reaction of a tetrahedranoidal compound with a carbon atom to produce the diamond unit cell.
- No diamond seed as used herein means that no seed of either diamond or other mineral is used to produce either the diamond unit cell or diamond mass. No diamond seed or other mineral seed is provided to the product diamond mass.
- Homogeneous morphology as used herein means that the product diamond mass is at least a contiguous, non-p articulate solid in structure and appearance. No coloration as a result of formation: means that the present diamond mass does not incur discoloration simply as a consequence of formation by combinatorial synthesis.
- Conventional synthetic diamonds usually exhibit a yellow or yellow-brown discoloration as a result of nitrogen oxide inclusions in the diamond crystal due to the extreme high pressure/high pressure temperature (HP/HT) conditions used in conventional diamond forming processes in the presence of atmospheric air. The present diamond mass does not suffer from this disadvantage as HP/HT conditions are avoided as is atmospheric air.
- No nitrogen getters means that no compounds or metals are added to the present diamond mass during growth to prevent formation of nitrogen oxide inclusions.
- nitrogen getters In conventional synthetic diamond forming reactions using HP/HT conditions under atmospheric air, nitrogen getters must be added to absorb or react with nitrogen in the air to prevent reaction of nitrogen and oxygen forming nitrogen oxides.
- aluminum or titanium have been used to remove nitrogen from growing diamond crystal.
- the present diamond mass is free of nitrogen. Thus, no color zonation is present in the diamond mass produced by the combinatorial synthesis of the diamond unit cell.
- No color zonation means that the present diamond mass contains no differential color zones due to impurities in contrast to natural and conventional synthetic diamond.
- "Combinatorial Synthesis of Diamond” (Hodes, U.S. Application No. 13/204,218, filed August 5, 2011, which claims priority to 61/344,510, filed August 11, 2010 herein incorporated by reference) is directed to a vapor phase synthesis of diamond wherein a carbon atom (C) free of meta-stable radical impurities (methyl radical-CH 3 - , di-radical methylene-CH2:, tri-radical methyne- ⁇ CH:) is obtained from a hydrocarbon source. This carbon atom so obtained is reacted with a species produced by catalytic treatment of acetylene.
- the present disclosure is directed to the diamond unit cell produced by combinatorial synthesis. Formation of diamond by a synthesis of its unit cell as disclosed in this disclosure and my previous disclosure proceeds by a method altogether different from the typical methods of diamond formation. Synthesis of the diamond unit cell relies upon chemical modification of molecules having structures similar to that of the diamond unit cell. That is, they are tetrahedral or nearly tetrahedral, structurally, and have chemical reactivity that can be exploited to alter their structure to produce the diamond unit cell. Stable, isolable tetrahedranes are known. Their stability is an artifact of the four bulky substituents on the four carbon atoms comprising the molecules. However, it is this very large steric bulk that makes them unsuitable for use as reactants in a diamond unit cell forming reaction.
- Tetrakis-tertiarybutyl tetrahedrane Tetrakis-trimethylsilyl tetrahedrane
- the diamond unit cell forming reaction of this disclosure proceeds by the reaction of a carbon atom free of meta-stable radical impurities, which is derived from a source hydrocarbon, with a second chemical species whose structure is closely related to tetrahedrane - a tetrahedranoidal structure.
- tetrahedrane itself, is considered to be a tetrahedranoidal structure.
- These tetrahedranoidal compounds are generally understood, however, as tetrahedranes having the 3,4 C-C bond replaced by an "insert" species.
- benzvalene (C6H 6 ) does not decompose per se; rather, it rearranges to benzene (C6H 6 ) under the conditions of the diamond unit cell syntheses disclosed herein.
- benzvalene' s more advantageous properties, as compared to diazabenzvalene or "tetrahedranone" in the diamond unit cell syntheses of this disclosure one skilled in the art will recognize that relaxation of rigorous manipulative care can result in an impurity which is highly undesirable and must be prevented from contacting the diamond mass under formation.
- Compounds I and II are reasonably stable in the presence of oxygen, and these compounds have good stability at ambient temperatures.
- Compound III decomposes at about -60°C and is unstable in the presence of oxygen.
- Compounds I and II decompose rapidly and even violently if they contact sharp surfaces.
- Compounds I and II are sensitive to rapid heating, and the rate of heating must not exceed 5°C per minute.
- Compounds I, II, and III are stored and used in inert atmospheres such as helium or argon, which gases should be of research purity having no more than 10 ppm impurities which impurities are identifiable by gc/ms.
- Reactant manipulation within an anaerobic environment eliminates the formation of C -induced radicals leading to impurities in the reactants, which deleteriously effect the product of the diamond unit cell forming reactions in which they are used.
- Diamond unit cells assemble to form a diamond mass.
- the diamond mass is formed by the assembly of a plurality of diamond unit cells, i.e., diamond molecules.
- Spectral examination of diamond formed by this method using Raman or Infrared reflectance reveals only peaks associated with diamond. For example, C— H stretching bands at 2800-3000 cm 1 typically observed for CVD diamond using methane gas are not observed. Graphitic impurities (sp 2 carbon) at 1580 cm “1 , which are frequently observed in CVD diamond, are not observed. The sharp peak at 1328-1332 cm “1 characteristic of diamond is observed.
- Sources of atomic carbon may include saturated hydrocarbons such as methane, ethane, and cycloalkanes.
- Cubane which has a strain energy of 166 kcal/mol, decomposes cleanly in a high energy discharge environment to yield carbon and hydrogen free of meta-stable radical impurities.
- cubane is decomposed to hydrogen and carbon free of meta-stable radical impurities using a microwave discharge (1 kW at 12 GHz being adequate).
- the diamond unit cell forming reaction is conducted in the vapor phase. In another embodiment, the diamond unit cell forming reaction is conducted in the solid state. In one embodiment of the solid state diamond unit cell forming reaction, a high degree of stoichiometric precision is employed to ensure a high degree of purity for the diamond product.
- the tetrahedranoid-to-cubane stoichiometry is 8:1. In one embodiment, the tetrahedranoid-to-cubane stoichiometry is precisely 8:1.
- stock solutions of cubane and tetrahedranoid compounds to be used are prepared and analyzed by liquid chromatography for concentration and for the presence of impurities.
- the impurities differ depending on the tetrahedranoid used.
- the principal impurity in benzvalene is benzene, which is notorious for imparting graphitic impurities into diamond.
- Tetrahedranone decomposes emitting carbon monoxide and rearranging to cyclobutadiene, seen spectroscopically as the dimer, dicyclobutadiene.
- Tetrahedranone can be separated from this impurity by slow and careful sublimation onto a -78°C cold finger and recovered under inert atmosphere. The practitioner will understand that manipulative care must be exercised for these tetrahedranoidal compounds based upon their previously disclosed properties: benzvalene and "tetrahedranone" must be heated gently as previously described, and diazabenzvalene must be used below about -60°C, entirely under anaerobic conditions.
- Commercially available liquid chromatography instruments are available for the quantitative and qualitative analyses required for stock solutions of reactants. Further, computer databases are available with such instruments for qualitative analyses of impurities (if any), and such instruments can provide the four place precision (and even higher) for quantitative analyses in these reactions. This allows preferred levels of precision for the diamond unit cell forming reactions to be obtained.
- the purity of the diamond produced by the solid phase diamond unit cell forming reaction is an artifact of the purity of the reactants used.
- the process begins with the use of purified reactants. More specifically, the carbon atom source and the tetrahedronoidal compounds are purified.
- the solutions of the individual reactants are prepared for analysis and standardization by liquid chromatography or by spectroscopic analysis. If the analysis verifies the requisite purity for the reaction, standardized stock solutions of precisely determined concentrations are prepared.
- the tetrahedranoidal compound (benzvalene, in this example) is adequately purified by placing it in a Schlenck (double manifold) vessel having a threaded wide mouth port, a septum port, and valved gas/vacuum arms operatively connected to the double manifold apparatus with a flow of inert gas (argon).
- the vessel is chilled to between -20 °C and - 45 °C and then evacuated to remove benzene (if any).
- Inert sweep gas is admitted, and an aliquot of the sweep is sampled by gc/ms to determine the presence of impurities.
- a solvent such as dichloromethane (in one embodiment at least research grade) distilled under argon from CaH 2 is added to prepare a stock solution, an aliquot of which is analyzed by liquid chromatography for standardizing the concentration of the solution.
- Stock solutions of "tetrahedranone" and of cubane are prepared similarly. Cubane may also be purified by sublimation in vacuum. Repeated sublimations of cubane are known to provide a product of very high purity with very small mass loss, overall.
- Schlenck multiple manifolds line solution transfer techniques are used to deliver reactants to their respective reaction receivers.
- the solutions are chilled and then freed of solvent under vacuum. Confirmation of complete solvent removal is done by gc/ms analysis of inert sweep gas.
- the tetrahedronoidal compounds I and II are purified using commercially available quantitative liquid chromatography apparatus.
- Solutions of the carbon atom source (e.g. cubane) and the tetrahedronoidal compound are then combined and transferred to a reaction vessel.
- This solution is freed of solvent under reduced pressure and temperature. More specifically, the solutions are chilled and solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure slowly to prevent bumping. Once the solvent appears to be completely removed, a flow of inert gas is passed over the remaining solid residue and sampled by gc/ms to verify that no residual solvent remains. If any solvent remains, the process is repeated (pumping and sampling) until no residual solvent remains. Thereupon, the vessel is filled with inert gas, sealed, and transferred to a dry box for transfer of the reaction vessel to a high energy discharge cell.
- the carbon atom source e.g. cubane
- the high energy discharge cell is a microwave, an electrostatic discharge device, or other high-energy discharge known in the bond cleavage art.
- the cell is sealed, removed from the dry box, connected to the double manifold apparatus, fitted with refrigerant lines to circulate refrigerant through the cold plate, and the exit port is connected to a gc/ms instrument as well as any additional ports as needed.
- the discharge is energized to initiate the diamond unit cell forming reaction while the effluent is monitored by gc/ms.
- this process is conducted under vacuum.
- this process is conducted in an inert gas.
- the reaction vessel containing the solid reaction is placed on a cold plate and chilled to between -20°C and -45°C within a microwave discharge cell under an inert atmosphere. At higher temperatures the tetrahedroidal compound(s) have sufficient vapor pressure to alter the precision of the stoichiometry.
- the cell is energized to effect the reaction, which is complete in about three to five seconds for a 1 mmol scale reaction.
- the reaction is conducted under vacuum.
- the reaction is monitored by gc/ms at the effluent port to determine when no more ejection products are detected.
- the cold plate is kept at about -60°C to -78°C or even lower.
- a solid state diamond unit cell forming reaction was performed as follows.
- a teflon lined glass receiver cylinder having a 2 cm diameter and 5 cm wall height was placed in a Schlenck vessel having a threaded wide mouth, gas/vacuum valve port, and septum port to which was attached an electronically controlled syringe pump.
- the vessel was sealed and evacuated followed by admission of argon and chilling in a dry ice/chlorobenzene bath (-45°C).
- a first precisely standardized solution of 1 mmol of benzvalene in dry dichloromethane was delivered into the contained cylinder.
- a second precisely standardized solution of 0.125 mmol of cubane in dry dichloromethane was delivered to the contained cylinder to afford an 8:1 (molar) mixture of benzvalene and cubane in dichloromethane.
- the syringe tube (needle) was removed, and argon flow was stopped. Vacuum was applied slowly to minimize bumping, and the solvent was removed under complete vacuum (about 10 minutes).
- Argon was readmitted when visual observation of the cylinder indicated that it contained a dry
- a vapor phase diamond unit cell forming reaction was performed as follows.
- a teflon lined glass receiver cylinder having a 2 cm diameter and 5 cm wall height was placed in a Schlenck vessel having a threaded wide mouth, gas/vacuum valve port, and septum port to which was attached an electronically controlled syringe pump.
- the vessel was sealed and evacuated followed by admission of argon and chilling in a dry ice/chlorobenzene bath ( -45 °C).
- a solution of 2 mmol of benzvalene in dichloromethane was delivered into the container cylinder.
- a second teflon lined glass receiver cylinder having a 2 cm diameter and 5 cm wall height was placed in a a second Schlenck vessel having a threaded wide mouth, gas/vacuum valve port, and septum port to which was attached an electronically controlled syringe pump.
- the vessel was sealed and evacuated followed by admission of argon and chilling in a dry ice-chlorobenzene bath ( -45°C).
- argon 0.125mmol of cubane in dichloromethane was delivered into the contained cylinder.
- the syringe lines (needles) were removed from both vessels. The flow of argon was ceased to both vessels.
- a silicon foil disk deposition target was heated to 85°C. Then, using pre-programmed values, gas flow, heating of both evaporators, and application of energy to the microwave discharge were initiated with monitoring of the effluent by gc/ms. When no more reaction by products were detected by gc/ms, the reaction is terminated, and the substrate is allowed to come to ambient temperature, whereupon it was removed and weighed. Yield was 59.77mg (99.5% of theoretical). FTIR reflectance confirmed the glassy film deposited upon the substrate to be diamond showing no graphite, amorphous carbon, or C-H peaks.
- tetrahedranoidal compound-to-cubane of ratio equal to or greater than 8:1 is used.
- the ratio is 16:1 (or greater) to ensure that all atomic carbon is reacted in the vapor phase to precipitate the diamond unit cell onto the substrate.
- the tetrahedranoidal compounds that may be used for this are benzvalene and 2,3,4- methynyl-cyclobutanone ("tetrahedranone"). Benzvalene is advantageous over tetrahedranone because it is more stable and more readily and economically obtained.
- the impurity due to autogenous rearrangement for benzvalene is benzene while the impurity obtained by autogenous decomposition of tetrahedranone is dicyclobutadiene, which is far more difficult to maintain in the vapor phase than benzene.
- Benzene can introduce graphitic impurities into diamond obtained by its deposition during the diamond unit cell forming reaction if allowed to come into contact with the deposition substrate. Benzene, if it is present, can be prevented from contaminating the diamond deposited upon the substrate by the diamond unit cell forming reaction (vapor phase) by two means.
- a second flow of heated carrier gas may be provided along the surface of the deposition substrate to maintain a "thermal barrier zone" against benzene if it is present.
- Such measures against benzene contamination may not necessarily be needed if benzvalene is properly handled, particularly during its vaporization. Thus, if rapid heating of benzvalene to its vaporization temperature is avoided, benzene formation can be avoided.
- the diamond unit cell forming reaction can be conducted in the solid state using a homogeneous mixture of cubane and any of the above-cited tetrahedranoidal compounds.
- This homogeneous blend is a molar ratio of 8:1, tetrahedranoid-to-cubane.
- a cubane molecule decomposes to provide eight carbon atoms and eight hydrogen atoms.
- the skilled practitioner will recognize that a high degree of stoichiometric precision is required when preparing the homogeneous blend of cubane and tetrahedranoid if a diamond product of high purity is to be obtained by the diamond unit cell forming reaction.
- Forming stock solutions of the individual reactants can achieve this precision with the use of liquid chromatographic equipment in tandem with mass spectrometric instrumentation (hplc-ms).
- liquid chromatographic equipment in tandem with mass spectrometric instrumentation (hplc-ms).
- Such equipment is commercially available and can attain five decimal place precision (and even higher for some research specification models).
- This equipment can readily identify and separate impurities common to tetrahedranoidal molecules. For benzvalene, the impurity that is observed is benzene.
- the impurity is dicyclobutadiene, which arises from the ejection of dinitrogen or carbon monoxide, respectively, from these tetrahedranoidal compounds.
- dicyclobutadiene which arises from the ejection of dinitrogen or carbon monoxide, respectively, from these tetrahedranoidal compounds.
- tetrahedranoidal reactant for the solid-state diamond unit cell forming reaction It is the most stable of the three tetrahedranoidal compounds, and it is fairly economical to use being readily prepared by standard organic synthesis methods from inexpensive reagents.
- the use of precisely calibrated stock solutions of the individual reactants using hplc-ms instrumentation also provides a means for maintaining the stoichiometric precision necessary for producing diamond by the solid state diamond unit cell forming reaction.
- the two solutions are combined and freed of solvent carefully at reduced pressure and at reduced temperature in the reaction vessel in which the diamond unit cell reaction occurs.
- the solid blend is held at low temperature in an inert atmosphere because the vapor pressures of the individual reactants are sufficient at ambient temperature (benzvalene: 106.12 mm Hg; cubane: 1.1mm Hg) to alter the stoichiometric precision of the homogeneous blend by evaporative loss.
- the diamond masses produced by the present invention have no detectable impurities, including amorphous carbon, non-diamond allotropes of carbon, hydrocarbenoids, heteroatoms and heteroatom-bearing materials.
- the diamond masses of the present invention are spectroscopically-free of graphitic impurities, and free of discoloration from nitrogen oxide inclusions or free of discoloration by inclusions of species including oxides of nitrogen.
- the present diamond masses also contain no nitrogen getter-contaminants.
- the present diamond masses contain neither color nor crystal zonation, and exhibit a homogeneous crystal morphology.
- Hydrocarbenoids are hydrocarbon-carbene-type reactive intermediates. Heteroatom means atoms other than carbon.
