HPHT and CVD Diamond Growth Processes
More and more couples today choose to be environmentally conscious, whether it’s going for an organic way of living or buying lab grown diamonds for special occasions. Over the past few decades, lab grown diamonds have gained immense popularity as compared to naturally mined diamonds. But, what exactly is a lab grown diamond? It is still a real diamond as its physical properties are identical. This is why it makes it difficult to tell the difference between a lab grown diamond and a natural one. In fact, even some experts have a tough time distinguishing between the two. One of the primary differences between natural and lab-grown diamonds is that natural diamo nds are formed deep within the crust of the Earth. Immense heat and pressure can cause carbon atoms to crystallize which can lead to forming diamonds. While lab grown diamonds are manufactured through two processes, HPHT and CVD. Let’s understand the growing process of both HTHP Diamonds and CVD diamonds. HPHT Diamond Pro...
