Excellent Properties of Gem-grade Monocrystal Diamond

Scientists have been dreaming to synthetize gem-grade monocrystal diamond, which is because diamond, in the first place, has many excellent performances as a special material, including a variety of extreme performances, such as the highest hardness and thermal conductivity. It is worthy of the name “the king of materials”.

According to its performance, it is widely applied in semiconductor, electronics, optics and precision/super precision machinery and other industrial areas, and these applications have the basic requirements for the purity and size of diamond crystal. In other words, only gem-grade monocrystal diamond can give full play to its excellent performance.

Secondly, the source of natural diamond is very limited, and the mining is also quite difficult. The diamond content of natural diamond mineral resources is very low. Even if it is so-called "rich ore", diamond content is only one over one million to one over ten million. It needs tons of ores, and can only get 1 carat diamond. Not only that, most of mined diamonds are in small size, low dark color and also have low purity, which only can be used for industrial use, and only about 20% are gem-grade diamonds.

In addition, as a kind of product that is widely applied in the industrial fields, large monocrystal diamond must be with high quality stability. Every natural diamond is not completely the same in size, shape, color, purity, crystal defect and density, so it is not suitable to be widely used as industrial products.

The 21st century will be the era of diamond. But if diamond can't be widely applied in semiconductor and high-tech fields such as optics, or gem-grade diamond can't make mass production, the diamond age is impossible.
