“…Fe, Co, Ni, or their alloys are the main catalysts used to obtain high-quality diamonds via HPHT. , Among them, Ni and Co are easily incorporated into diamond lattices via substitution, , but it is much more difficult to incorporate Fe . Therefore, Fe-based catalysts alloy are the most promising for synthesizing high-purity diamonds, but filiform defects are often found in larger diamonds synthesized using these materials. , The origin of filiform defects in diamonds remains unclear, and there have been no reports on methods to eliminate them. Hence, it is crucial to understand the formation mechanism of filiform defects in diamonds and take effective measures to eliminate or reduce their occurrence.…”
