    Abstract: Conductive diamond micro-electrode sensors and sensor arrays are disclosed for in vivo chemical sensing. Also provided is a method of fabrication of individual sensors and sensor arrays. Reliable, sensitive and selective chemical micro-sensors may be constructed for real-time, continuous monitoring of neurotransmitters and neuro-active substances in vivo . Each sensor comprises a conductive microwire, having a distal end comprising a tip, coated with nanocrystalline or ultrananocrystalline conductive diamond, and an overlying insulating layer. Active sensor areas of the conductive diamond layer are defined by openings in the insulating layer at the distal end. Multiple sensor areas may be defined by a 2 or 3 dimensional pattern of openings near the tip. This structure limits interference from surrounding areas for improved signal to noise ratio, sensitivity and selectivity. Using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry and high speed multiplexers, multiple sensors can be arrayed to provide 3-D spatial, and near real-time monitoring.

    Abstract: An electrolytic ozone generator includes an anode with a longitudinal edge, a cathode with a longitudinal edge spaced apart from the cathode, and an isolator. The isolator electrically separates the cathode from the anode and is semi-impermeable. The anode and cathode are impermeable for generating ozone in a flow area fluidly coupling longitudinal edges of the anode and the cathode. Ozone water apparatus, methods of making electrolytic ozone generators, and methods of generating ozone using electrolytic ozone generators are also described.

    Abstract: A method is provided for operation of an electrochemical cell, comprising performing a process cycle and a regeneration cycle, which enables in situ regeneration of a diamond electrode after anodic oxidation, e.g. during electrolysis of an aqueous electrolyte at high current density. The regeneration cycle is performed upon at a predetermined process time or after detecting a condition indicative of a threshold level of anodic oxidation. The regeneration cycle comprises supplying a current to the electrodes under reverse polarity, to cause the diamond electrode to act as a cathode, and electrolyzing an electrolyte to generate hydrogen on the diamond surface of first electrode, thereby reducing the anodic oxidation and reactivating the electrode surface. Hydrogen may be generated by applying a sufficiently negative potential to the electrode during cathodic treatment in an aqueous electrolyte that is non-acidic, or weakly acidic, having a pH≥4, for example.

    Abstract: The present invention describes a microfabricated or nanofabricated structured diamond abrasive with a high surface density array of geometrical protrusions of pyramidal, truncated pyramidal or other shape, of designed shapes, sizes and placements, which provides for improved conditioning of CMP polishing pads, or other abrasive roles. Three methods of fabricating the structured diamond abrasive are described: molding of diamond into an array of grooves of various shapes and sizes etched into Si or another substrate material, with subsequent transferal onto another substrate and removal of the Si; etching of an array of geometrical protrusions into a thick diamond layer, and depositing a thick diamond layer over a substrate pre-patterned (or pre-structured) with an array of geometrical protrusions of designed sizes, shapes and placements on the surface.
