ABSTRACT:
A process for shaping a thin, free-standing diamond film having a rough growth surface. The process includes the steps of: cutting the rough growth surface of said film with a laser to form a plurality of first ridges; translating said film in a direction parallel to said surface or rotating said film along an axis of rotation perpendicular to said surface; repeating said cutting to form a plurality of second ridges; and lapping said growth surface to reduce the height of said second ridges. The laser utilized may be a Nd:YAG laser and may be continuous or pulsed.
