Nitrogen is ubiquitous in both natural and laboratory-grown diamond, but the number and
nature of the nitrogen-containing defects can have a profound effect on the diamond …

Defect-free diamond is an important physics playground and technological tool due to its
well-known list of superlative properties, such as its hardness, thermal conductivity …

One of the key scientific questions about diamonds is “how are they formed?” To answer this
question, we need to know the diamond-forming reactions and the physicochemical …

The science of studying diamond inclusions for understanding Earth history has developed
significantly over the past decades, with new instrumentation and techniques applied to …

Abstract Diamonds from the Machado River alluvial deposit have been characterised on the

Re-Os isotope systematics are reported from a suite of eclogitic and websteritic sulphide
inclusions extracted from well-characterised diamond growth zones from the Orapa and …

Platelets are one of the most common defects occurring in natural diamonds but their
behaviour has not previously been well understood. Recent technical advances, and a …
