The solar radiation has significant impact on the earth climate and environment, so it’s important to detect it. High thermal conductivity and high absorptivity material for absorbing radiation is highly needed to improve the performance of the radiation detector. The compound diamond films were deposited using microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition MW-PCVD and hot cathode direct current plasma chemical vapor deposition DC-PCVD methods. The absorptivity of the compound diamond film is 99%—99.2%. With the increase of the thickness of black diamond layer, the thermal conductivity of the compound diamond film decreases a little, but the thermal conductivity is always larger than 16 W/K·cm when the thickness of black diamond layer is less than 15 μm and so it is still a high thermal conductivity material. The black diamond layer deposited on high purity diamond film by hot cathode DC-PCVD method has apparent wide Raman peaks at 1500—1600 cm-1and 1350 cm-1 which correspond to non-diamond carbon phase. With the increase of methane, this non-diamond carbon phase also increases. As the non-diamond carbon phase, like graphite, increases, the transmissivity of the compound diamond films decreases. The black diamond layer deposited on the high purity diamond acts as the heat sink and has high surface adhesion property, and high thermal conductivity.
