Abstract

The fabrication of low-dimensional diamond materials in form of nanowires is a stringent requirement for advanced electronic applications. However, the nanometric control of diamond materials into desired and tailored geometries, as those ones required for applications in the field of nano-photonics, is a really challenging and complex task using currently available processes. In the present paper we describe some recent results obtained using plasma-induced processes for the shaping of diamond films in fascinating 1D structures, such as nanowires, nanowhiskers and nanopillars, to be integrated in devices of technological interest.
