BDD by MPCVD vs HFCVD

Microwave Plasma CVD (MPCVD)-synthesized boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes exhibit superior electrochemical performance compared to Hot Filament CVD (HFCVD) counterparts. MPCVD enables precise control over plasma density and boron doping uniformity, resulting in highly crystalline films with minimal defects and robust sp³ bonding. This method avoids filament contamination risks associated with HFCVD, which can introduce impurities (e.g., silicon from quartz components) and create uneven doping distributions, compromising electrode stability and conductivity. Studies confirm MPCVD-grown BDD electrodes on substrates like niobium and silicon achieve optimal adhesion, longevity, and enhanced electrochemical activity for applications such as water treatment and energy storage. At 6CCVD, our BDD electrodes are synthesized via MPCVD, ensuring industry-leading quality and performance.
