Abstract
Annihilation characteristics of positrons in various types of diamonds were studied by measurements of two-dimensional angular correlation of positron annihilation, those of Doppler Broadening profiles and those of lifetime spectra. From the measurements, it was found that there is a small amount of defects in type Ib synthesized diamond and the positron lifetime is 115 ps. On the other hand, it was found that positronium is formed in natural diamonds. Results of the double x-ray measurements suggested that IIa, IIb, and Ia type natural diamonds also may have empty space between crystallites or grain boundaries.
