Abstract

We demonstrate a simple technique to fabricate cantilevers from bulk CVD sinle crystal diamond as well as from single crystal diamond membrane windows fabricated in a novel technique. Mechanical quality factors of cantilevers were measured. A mechanical Q-factor of as high as 500 was achieved.
