Growth of diamond while molten metal is solidified

Abstract

This paper reviews rare types of diamond growth. It is quite popular that diamond grows from molten metal under high pressure and temperature conditions. The diamond is usually grown at a fixed temperature, but there are only a few reports that show growth morphology of diamond formed while the temperature is decreased. This paper presents growth pattens formed on diamond surfaces when the growth temperature is rapidly decreased, and diamond dendrite formed with temperature decrease at slow rates.
