Most-cited papers in Functional Diamond

Progress in semiconductor diamond photodetectors and MEMS sensors

Meiyong Liao · 2 Jan 2021

Diamond with an ultra-wide bandgap shows intrinsic performance that is extraordinarily superior to those of the currently available wide-bandgap semiconductors for deep-ultraviolet (DUV) photoelectronics and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). The wide-bandgap energy of diamond offers the intrinsic advantage for solar-blind detection of DUV light. The recent progress in high-quality single-crystal diamond growth, doping, and devices design…

Diamond as the heat spreader for the thermal dissipation of GaN-based electronic devices

Liwen Sang · 2 Jan 2021

With the increasing power density and reduced size of the GaN-based electronic power converters, the heat dissipation in the devices becomes the key issue toward the real applications. Diamond, with the highest thermal conductivity among all the natural materials, is of the interest for integration with GaN to dissipate the generated heat from the channel…

Recent progress in diamond radiation detectors

Takehiro Shimaoka, Satoshi Koizumi, Jemmy Christy H et al. · 2 Jan 2021

This paper reviews recent progress in diamond radiation detectors. Diamond is an ultra-wide gap (5.5 eV) semiconducting material which has several ideal properties for radiation detectors, such as solar blindness, high temperature operation, and fast response. Furthermore, diamond has near tissue-equivalence due to its low atomic number (Z = 6) and chemical stability due to…

Progress of structural and electronic properties of diamond: a mini review

Hongchao Yang, Yandong Ma, Ying Dai · 2 Jan 2021

Diamond is of great importance for scientific and practical applications. It is the hardest natural material and holds potential applications in mechanics, electronics and photonics. Over the past few decades, great efforts have been paid for exploring its nature both experimentally and theoretically. Most of the recent studies on diamond are focused on their geometry…

CVD diamond: a review on options and reality

Christoph E. Nebel · 24 Apr 2023

In the future, electronic parts will penetrate everything, generating a new and fast-growing pollution problem. Future devices therefore need to be environmentally friendly with strong recycling options. A paradigm change in semiconductor technology is predicted based on applications of better suited materials which can fulfil these criteria. Carbon based materials and here especially diamond are…

Functional Diamond template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Functional Diamond format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Functional Diamond template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Functional Diamond use?
Functional Diamond uses Author–year (Chicago, T&F) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Functional Diamond 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Functional Diamond?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready Functional Diamond document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Functional Diamond template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Functional Diamond format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Functional Diamond?
Functional Diamond is a multidisciplinary journal published by Taylor & Francis. DocuGuru's Functional Diamond template matches Taylor & Francis's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Functional Diamond PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Functional Diamond template (the interact class) that is ready to submit to Taylor & Francis, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Functional Diamond template cost?
You can start writing in the Functional Diamond template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Functional Diamond PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
