Copper matrix composites reinforced diamond (diamond/Cu) composites were successfully fabricated by pressureless infiltration method. The composition and structure of the coating are investigated using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction. The results indicate that the composition of the coatings is WC which is uniform on diamond. The microstructure and properties of diamond/Cu composites were investigated. The results show that the diamond/Cu composites were compact and WC transition layers onto diamond can greatly promote the compatibility between diamond and Cu. Further investigation reveals that the diamond/Cu composites possess low density (5.3907g/cm<sup>3</sup>), excellent thermal management function as a result of high thermal conductivity up to 761.1 W/(m•K) and a fine tightness (2.5&times;10<sup>-10</sup> Pa•m<sup>3</sup>/s).
