A pink CVD synthetic diamond treated with low-pressure high-temperature (LPHT) annealing has been examined. The irradiation-related peaks of 1450 cm-1 (H1a), 741.1 nm (GR1), 594.3 nm and 393.5 nm (ND1) that are seen in common pink CVD synthetic diamonds treated with multi-step processes were absent in this sample. Meanwhile, absorption peas at 7917, 7814, 3123 and 1374 cm-1 in infrared region and at 667 and 684 nm in visible range were detected.
