Abstract

High-quality type-Ma gem diamond crystals are successfully synthesized in a Ni70Mn25 C05-C system by temperature gradient method (TGM) at about 5.5 GPa and 1560 K. Al and Ti/Cu are used as nitrogen getters respectively. While nitrogen getter Al or Ti/Cu is added into the synthesis system, some inclusions and caves tend to be introduced into the crystals. When Al is added into the solvent alloy, we would hardly gain high-quality type-IIa diamond crystals with nitrogen concentration Nc < 1 ppm because of the reversible reaction of Al and N at high pressure and high temperature (HPHT). However, when Ti/Cu is added into the solvent alloy, high-quality type-IIa diamond crystals with Nc < 1 ppm can be grown by decreasing the growth rate of diamonds.
