| Research Abstract |
This project was performed to establish basic scope of the synthwsis of high pure diamond single crystal. High pressure solvent growth method of single crystal diamond, which only possible method at present, was studied from basic view points. We examined various pressure-temperature region of diamond formation of the carbon alloy systems and found that some alloys such as Ni-Ti and Fe-B showed the region which no spontaneous nucleation of diamond was observed. The finding of these region canpropose better P-T condition to perform crystal growth only selectively on the surface of seed crystal.
We developed piston cylinder type and cubic anvil type high pressure apparatus to establish DTA method to detect liquidus temperature under pressure for various carbon and solvent alloy system. Thirdly, we Thirdly, we examined Ni-Ti sovent as a typical system, because Ti has two opposed function namely agent to prevent nitrogen contamination to the diamond lattice and possible souce to supply TiC and TiN into diamond bulk as an inclusion. It was found that high purity diamond crystal can be grown in the solvent of an optimum amount of Ti.
Impurities of light elements inthe diamond lattice could be detected by SIMS and possibly AES and these measurements can also corelate with molecular orbital energy calculation done for the case of Ni impurity.
