Patent ID: 8820442

Claim:
A polycrystalline diamond compact, comprising: a substrate including an interfacial surface having a generally cylindrical raised region and a peripheral region extending about the generally cylindrical raised region, the generally cylindrical raised region extending to a non-zero height above the peripheral region of about 450 μm or less, wherein a surface area of the generally cylindrical raised region comprises at least 60 percent of the surface area of the interfacial surface of the substrate; and a polycrystalline diamond table bonded to the interfacial surface of the substrate and integrally formed with the substrate, the polycrystalline diamond table including an upper surface and at least one peripheral surface, the polycrystalline diamond table including a plurality of bonded diamond grains defining a plurality of interstitial regions, the polycrystalline diamond table including an unleached first region adjacent to the substrate in which at least a portion of the plurality of interstitial regions of the first region includes a metallic constituent disposed therein and a leached region from which the metallic constituent is depleted that extends inwardly from the upper surface to a maximum leach depth of at least about 50 μm; wherein a ratio of a thickness of the polycrystalline diamond table over the generally cylindrical raised region of the substrate to the maximum leach depth is about 1.25 to about 4.0.
