Publication number: 20120170019Abstract: Diamonds may be identified as grown by the use of chemical vapor deposition. One or more diamonds may be placed on a surface and exposed to short wavelength light. Diamonds that fluoresce red may be identified as grown by the use of chemical vapor deposition. In some embodiments, the diamonds are cooled prior to exposure to the short wavelength light.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2012Publication date: July 5, 2012Applicant: Apollo Diamond Gemstone CorporationInventors: Robert C. Linares, Patrick J. Doering

Publication number: 20100055022Abstract: Diamonds are embedded with one or more layers representative of an identifier. The identifier may include encoding in the form of defects created in one or more layers in a recognizable pattern, such as a bar code, characters or symbols. In some embodiments, a single crystal CVD diamond is formed with layers of varying thickness to provide the encoding. A system includes a radiation source to provide short wavelength light. A holder positions a gemstone to receive the light. A detector is positioned to receive fluorescent light from the gemstone when the gemstone is a CVD grown gemstone, and a pattern identifier correlates a detected pattern of defects to unique identification information.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2009Publication date: March 4, 2010Applicant: Apollo Diamond Gemstone CorporationInventors: Bryant Linares, Robert C. Linares, Patrick J. Doering

Publication number: 20100028556Abstract: Chemical vapor deposition grown diamonds may be provided with one or more layers of doping to form colored diamonds. In one embodiment, layers of pink colored diamond may be formed by doping with nitrogen. In further embodiments, layers of yellow colored diamond may be formed by doping with boron. In some embodiments, the grown diamond has a single crystalline structure with minimal to no grain boundaries.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2009Publication date: February 4, 2010Applicant: Apollo Diamond Gemstone CorporationInventors: Robert C. Linares, Patrick J. Doering
