The effect of nitrogen removal agents on diamond quality during annealing
Qiang Chen, Fuming Deng, Ziyi Liu, Jianghe Liao, Wenli Deng, Xiaotian Xing, Houzhen Chen, Yan Wang, Junzhe Yu, Can Li, Kaiyuan XueThis study examines the effects of de-nitrogenation agents on annealed diamonds; this process significantly enhances the diamond's lustre without introducing new impurities. Furthermore, it enables the controlled formation of NV centres.
