Award for GreenDiamond PhD student Marie-Laure Hicks!

After Gauthier Chicot in Warsaw, GreenDiamond work received more recognition with the Hasselt Diamond Workshop Brilliant Poster Prize awarded to Marie-Laure Hicks (UCL).

Process optimisation of Al/O2 ICP reactive ion etch for patterning of single crystal diamond (100) HPHT substrates and epitaxial growths, M-L. Hicks, A. C. Pakpour-Tabrizi, R. J. Edgington, R. B. Jackman.

This is key work contributing to the development of deep etching processes for diamond device fabrication, one of the technology challenges highlighted during the power electronics panel at the Hasselt Diamond Workshop.
