Formation of the nitrogen aggregates in annealed diamond by neutron irradiation
Source abstract
Abstract
Neutron heavy irradiation was performed on synthetic diamonds contain nitrogen atoms in isolated substitutional form (called “type Ib diamond”) and they were annealed under a pressure of 6 GPa. A large number of nitrogen B-aggregate which consists of four substitutional nitrogen atoms symmetrically surrounding a vacancy was formed within 30 m from single nitrogen atoms. Furthermore it is observed that, in these diamonds, single nitrogen atoms coexist with the B-aggregates, which is unexplainable by the simple nitrogen aggregation model.
