What is single crystal diamond?
Single crystal diamond is grown by in- house developed state-of-the-art microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition technology. The nitrogen content in the fabricate crystals is less than 500 ppb and there is little optical absorption for photon energies below the bandgap (wavelengths greater than 225 nm).
What is diamond CVD?
Colorless synthetic diamonds produced by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) are becoming more common in the market.
What is crystal diamond mixture used for?
Diamond Crystal Iron Fighter Salt Pellets (up to 99.6% pure salt) contain an FDA-approved, with generic name as Crystal Diamond Mixture (CDM) highly effective rust remover which helps to prevent rust stains on laundry and household fixtures.
What is a crystal diamond good for?
It has the best thermal conductivity of any material (five times higher than copper), as well as high stiffness, considerable wear-resistance and extreme hardness. It is chemically inert, radiation hard and fosters superb electrochemical properties.
Is diamond CVD good?
But while the average CVD diamond will likely be of higher quality than the average mined diamond, CVDs still exhibit a range quality. This is because lab-conditions are essentially the same processes that produce diamonds in nature.
What is CVD coated?
A CVD coating is a material applied to a surface by a method called chemical vapor deposition. CVD products can be found in applications ranging from machine tools, wear components, analytical flow path components, instrumentation and many other areas demanding a high performance thin film.
How the crystal structure of diamond is formed?
Diamond crystal is constituted by sp3 hybridized carbon atoms which are bonded to four nearest neighbors in tetrahedral coordination. When the crystal is cut or cleaved, bonds are broken, creating dangling bonds at the surface. These dangling bonds are the source of chemical activity on diamond surfaces.
What are diamond crystals?
Diamond is also a natural crystal. It is formed in deep earth layers by compression of the mineral carbon under very high pressure. Gemstones can be cut and polished into beautiful shapes due to their composition and hardness.
