Abstract
A diamond substrate producing method includes a belt-shaped separation layer forming step of applying a laser beam to a diamond ingot as relatively moving the ingot and a focal point of the laser beam in a [110]-direction perpendicular to a (110)-plane, thereby forming a belt-shaped separation layer extending in the [110]-direction inside the ingot, an indexing step of relatively moving the ingot and the focal point in an indexing direction parallel to a (001)-plane and perpendicular to the [110]-direction, a planar separation layer forming step of repeating the belt-shaped separation layer forming step and the indexing step to thereby form a planar separation layer parallel to the (001)-plane inside the ingot, the planar separation layer being composed of a plurality of belt-shaped separation layers arranged side by side in the indexing direction, and a separating step of separating a substrate from the diamond ingot along the planar separation layer.
