Description

Large high-purity (type IIa) diamond crystals up to 12 mm in diameter were grown by the temperature gradient method at high pressure and high temperature, using high-purity Fe-Co solvent, high-purity carbon source and high-crystalline-quality (001)-oriented seed crystals. The large synthetic IIa diamond crystals are characterized by high-crystalline-quality, having very few dislocations or stacking faults. The X-ray projection topograph revealed that the crystals have no crystal defects especially in the (001) growth sectors in the upper part of the crystals grown on seeds. Diamond crystals containing a large defect free area of 5 × 5 mm^2 or more were successfully obtained by controlling the temperature strictly on the low-temperature side in the synthesis region to allow the (001) growth sectors to become dominant.
