一颗由N、H相关缺陷共同致色的彩灰黄绿色钻石的鉴定特征
Identification Characteristics of a Fancy Grayish Yellowish Green Diamond Colored by N and H Related Defects
天然绿钻占全球天然钻石总量的比例不到0.07%,属于极为稀有的宝石。前人将天然绿色钻石划分为四种基本致色机制:GR1、H3、H、Ni,另外一部分属于这几种成因机制的组合型,H相关缺陷致绿色的钻石仅占绿色钻石数量的16%,并多带褐色或者灰色调,达到“Fancy”色级的更为稀少。作者收集到一颗“Fancy”色级灰黄绿色钻石,对该粒钻石进行紫外可见光谱、红外吸收光谱、光致发光光谱等光谱学测试,检测到与H相关615 nm吸收峰、730 nm、835 nm吸收带吸收了红橙区的可见光,N相关缺陷的415 nm、452 nm、462 nm、478 nm吸收峰吸收了蓝紫色区的可见光,在黄绿区留下一个V字形透射窗,使样本呈现黄绿色,与H相关的530 nm吸收带产生灰色,最终形成了灰黄绿色。因未检测到GR1、H3、Ni相关的紫外可见吸收峰,按照前人的理论应将这颗绿色钻石划归为H相关缺陷致色机制,本文认为N相关缺陷产生的吸收对于样本绿色的形成也很重要,因此将样本绿钻归为N、H相关缺陷共同致色更为合理,这粒稀少的“Fancy”色级天然灰黄绿色钻石分析数据能为实验室鉴定绿色钻石提供一份比较完整的参考。
Natural green diamonds represent less than 0.07% of global natural diamond production and are considered exceptionally rare gemstones. Previous studies have classified the coloration mechanisms of natural green diamonds into four primary types: GR1, H3, H and Ni, with some specimens exhibiting combinations of these mechanisms. Among them, diamonds whose green color arises from H related defects constitute approximately 16% of all natural green diamonds; these are typically characterized by brownish or grayish hues, and those achieving the “Fancy” color grade are particularly scarce. In this study, a “Fancy” grayish yellowish green diamond was collected and subjected to comprehensive spectroscopic analyses, The results revealed the presence of an H related 615 nm absorption peak, along with 730 nm and 835 nm absorption bands that attenuate visible light in the red-orange spectral region. Additionally, nitrogen (N) related defects exhibited absorption peaks at 415 nm, 452 nm, 462 nm, and 478 nm, which absorb blue-violet light, resulting in a V shaped transmission window in the yellow-green region, this contributes significantly to the observed yellow-green appearance. A distinct 530 nm absorption band introduced a grayish component, ultimately yielding a grayish-green hue. Notably, no UV-Vis absorption features associated with GR1, H3 or Ni centers were detected. Based on existing classification criteria, this diamond would be categorized as having H related defects induced coloration. However, the author emphasizes that the contribution of N related defects to the overall color formation is substantial. Therefore, it is more accurate to attribute the color of this specimen to a synergistic effect between H and N related defects.
