Effect of Low Neutron Doses on the Properties of Synthetic Diamond Crystals
Tóm tắt
The effect of neutron irradiation on the properties of diamond crystals prepared in the Mn–Ni–C system (5.5 GPa, 1620–1670 K, 120–300 s) was studied. The results indicate that irradiation increases the strength of the crystals and reduces the concentration of paramagnetic centers. The observed changes are interpreted in terms of interaction between intrinsic defects and impurities.
