Notes:
Although various diamond polishing techniques have been studied for many years, noindividual method can polish free-standing CVD diamond film with high efficiency and highpolishing quality. This paper investigates polishing CVD diamond film by the combination ofelectro-discharge machining (EDM) and chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). Scanning electromicroscopy, Optical microscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Talysurf surface profiler andRaman spectroscopy were used to evaluate the surface integrity and quality of diamond film beforeand after polishing. Based on the experimental results, the material removal during EDM processcan be a chemo-mechanical process, including gasification, melting, sputtering, oxidation andgraphitization. While in CMP process, diamond was removed under the mechanical andtribochemical interaction. The combination of EDM and CMP has advantages of high efficiency,high polishing quality and low damage. It is suitable to polish large area free-standing CVDdiamond film
