Abstract:
The invention relates to a device ( 1 ) and method for applying a carbon layer, in particular a diamond layer, to a substrate ( 2, 2 a ) by means of chemical vapour deposition, comprising a deposition chamber ( 3 ) into which a process gas, in particular molecular hydrogen and/or a mixture of molecular hydrogen and a carbon-containing gas, such as methane can be supplied, wherein a gas inlet and gas activation element ( 7 ) is provided in the form of a hollow body with a flow channel ( 7 b ) for the process gas, a wall ( 7 a ) surrounding the flow channel ( 7 b ), and an outlet opening ( 16 ) feeding from the flow channel ( 7 b ) into the deposition chamber ( 3 ), and a heating device ( 8 ) is provided for heating the wall ( 7 a ) of the gas inlet and gas activation element ( 7 ).

Claim (Index 15):
A device for applying a carbon layer to a substrate by chemical vapour deposition, said device comprising a deposition chamber, into which a process gas is fed, wherein a gas inlet and gas activation element is provided in the form of a hollow body with a flow channel for the process gas, a wall surrounding the flow channel and an outlet opening feeding from the flow channel into the deposition chamber, and a heating device is provided for heating the wall of the gas inlet and gas activation element, wherein termination bodies are attached to ends of the gas inlet and gas activation element in order to close off the flow channel, wherein a further gas inlet element is provided for introducing a carbon-containing process gas into the deposition chamber, wherein the further gas inlet element is arranged so that the carbon-containing process gas introduced thereby flows over the gas inlet and gas activation element.
