CONSULTING / DEVELOPMENTS

Diacara consultancy was launched in 2016 and is based on comprehensive expertise in the manufacturing processes, technologies, characterization tools and applications of CVD diamond and graphene. CVD-Diamond and graphene – two new and sophisticated materials – are currently introduced to gem-markets and cutting-edge technologies.

Diacara conveys latest results in diamond and graphene research and developments. Its knowledge base are numerous published articles in international journals, organization of and participation of international meetings and networks. Diacara refers to many project leaderships which were commissioned in the context of European (EU) activities, the German Research Foundation (DFG) or the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).

Carbon atoms form various compounds. The most well-known forms are graphite, diamond and graphene.

The characteristics of these allotropes vary considerably and thus offer unique possibilities for the development of innovative new technologies and applications (e.g. in power electronics, energy storage, sensor technology or medical technology).

Diamond can now be produced synthetically by means of plasma-assisted chemical gas phase deposition (CVD) processes. Graphene flakes can be produced through the expansion of graphite. Both materials can be manufactured in larger quantities. Carbon-based components are environmentally friendly and therefore particularly suitable when integrating sensors into smart homes, cities and cars. In the field of diamond jewelry applications, “man-made” diamonds can prevent the overexploitation of nature. The novel carbons are also particularly promising from the perspective of sustainability.

If carbon is thus the material of the future for you, please contact us. Diacara is committed to providing expert view and comprehensive advice to interested customers in terms of manufacturing and production technologies as well as possible applications and markets.

Developments will be supported as well as product optimizations.

We will support you in making your business model a success.
