Abstract: 

This paper presents the results of a study of diamond single crystals of defect-impurity composition grown in a temperature gradient at high pressures and temperatures (HTHP-crystallization of diamond) in a Fe-Co-C solution with an addition of Mg depending on the amount of Mg, the content of nitrogen changes in various sectors of crystals growth, which causes a mixed type of crystals. The peculiarities of changes in the defect-impurity composition of the grown diamond single crystals were studied using IR spectroscopy and optical microscopy for concentration limits of 1.8-5.7 at. % of Mg content.

Keywords: 
diamond, single crystal, crystal growth, temperature gradient method, nitrogen and boron impurities, high pressures and temperatures.
