The influence of neutron irradiation on the thermal conductivity κ of diamond films fabricated by hot filament (HF) and microwave plasma assisted (MPA) deposition has been studied. The additional thermal resistivity induced by irradiation is similar to that found in single crystal diamond and is due mainly to the formation of clusters of disordered carbon material. Despite a significant difference in κ prior to irradiation, the thermal conductivity of the HF and MPA films is almost the same after a cumulative dose of 2.7×1017 neutrons cm−2.
