Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for growing a synthetic diamond. The apparatus for growing a synthetic diamond comprises: a reaction area contained with a high pressure, high temperature apparatus; and a means for pulling a vacuum on the reaction area. The method for growing a synthetic diamond includes the steps of using a reaction area contained within a high pressure, high temperature apparatus; and pulling a vacuum on the reaction area.
Abstract:
A gasket comprises a material having a creep relaxation of about 5-40%, a sealability of about 0.10-0.50 ml/hr, compressibility of about 5-40% and a tensile strength of about 1000-5000 psi. The gasket is used in a high pressure, high temperature apparatus.
Abstract:
An apparatus for growing a synthetic diamond comprises a growth chamber, at least one manifold allowing access to the growth chamber, and a plurality of safety clamps positioned on opposite sides of the growth chamber; wherein the growth chamber and the plurality of safety clamps are comprised of a material having a tensile strength of about 120,000-200,000 psi, a yield strength of about 100,000-160,000 psi, an elongation of about 10-20%, an area reduction of about 40-50%, an impact strength of about 30-40 ft-lbs, and a hardness greater than 320 BHN.
