Journal ArticleDOI
On the internal structure of natural diamonds of cubic habit
Moreton Moore,A. R. Lang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, three natural cubes were examined by x-ray topography, each of edge length about 1·8 mm, and two possessed very similar internal structures, describable in terms of space-filling by fibrous or columnar single-crystal growth in directions, with branching and equal growth velocities in these symmetrically equivalent directions.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the origin of the rounded dodecahedral habit of natural diamond
Moreton Moore,A. R. Lang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that dissolution of rounded rhombic dodecahedral diamonds proceeds on an atomic scale by motion of kinks along stable monomolecular steps parallel to ǫ-110-degree directions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cathodoluminescence evidence of dislocation interactions in diamond
N. Sumida,A. R. Lang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors interpreted a macroscopic manifestation of microscopic interactions between glide dislocations on these octahedral slip planes and the dislocation of the mosaic, whereby passage of fresh gliders through low-angle boundaries and forest deformation has produced jogs which have persisted since the deformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cavitation as a Mechanism for the Synthesis of Natural Diamonds
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that cavitation can occur when flowing magma in a pipe encounters a constriction, and that in the ensuing collapse of a bubble very substantial transient dynamic pressures, of magnitude sufficient to be of thermodynamic importance for diamond synthesis, can be produced.
