Abstract

The heat propagation at room temperature was studied in a heterostructure consisting of a polycrystalline diamond film deposited from a hydrocarbon plasma on an oriented silicon substrate. The dynamics of cooling of a thin-film indium thermometer evaporated atop the diamond film was measured following its heating by nanosecond nitrogen laser pulses. The experimental data were compared with the values calculated in the framework of the theory of thermal conductivity for multilayer systems. This analysis permitted the determination of both the thermal conductivity of the diamond film and the thermal resistance of the diamond/Si and In/diamond interfaces.
