Abstract
A method of making a diamond film on a graphite substrate is disclosed, which comprises the steps of forming a layer of carbon-containing compound on a surface of the graphite substrate and controlling said compound to be rich or lean in carbon with respect to the stoichiometric carbon content in the compound to adjust the adherence of a diamond layer to be deposited on said layer of carbon-containing compound; and depositing a synthetic diamond layer on said layer of carbon-containing compound.
