             abstract = "The great importance of Boron Doped Diamond Titanium (BDD-Ti) 
                         electrodes is correlated to demanding application such as 
                         wastewater treatment, electroanalysis and electrosythesis [1]. In 
                         this work, we report the obtention of a net-like BDD-Ti electrode 
                         candidate to electrochemical applications. Expanded titanium in a 
                         net configuration was utilized as substrate for the diamond film 
                         growth. The substrate was previously purified in oxalic acid; sand 
                         blasted, and than ultrasonically treated with diamond powder for 
                         provides enhanced diamond nucleation. BDD diamond films were grown 
                         by Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition (HFCVD) technique at 870 
                         K from a H2-CH4 (1%-90%) mixture, with a boron doping level of 
                         5000 ppm and a total pressure of 6.6 kPa. Top view images of 
                         diamond films were obtained by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). 
                         Film quality and diamond content were analyzed by Raman 
                         Spectroscopy recorded by a Renishaw microscope system 2000 in 
                         backscattering configuration. Electrochemical investigation for 
                         characterizing the electrode was carried out by Cyclic Voltammetry 
                         in 0.1 M KCl electrolyte. A simple threeelectrode (work electrode, 
                         counter electrode and reference electrode) inside of a 
                         singlecompartment electrochemical cell was used in this study. The 
                         electrodes were not submitted to surface pretreatment before 
                         electrochemical measurements. Ag/AgCl and platinum were used as 
                         reference and counter electrodes, respectively. The Net BDD-Ti 
                         electrode showed a suitable electrical conductivity for using as 
                         an electrode material in electrochemical applications.",
