Yes, diamonds can be tested with machines to determine their authenticity and characteristics.
These machines use various methods to analyze the diamonds.
One common method is bombarding them with specific types of radiation and analyzing the spectroscopic output.
This process can reveal distinctive features of lab-grown diamonds, such as growth lines in CVD diamonds.
These features are visible under specialized equipment like the DiamondView machine.
5 Key Points to Know
1. Distinguishing Natural from Synthetic Diamonds
These testing machines are capable of distinguishing between natural earth-mined diamonds and man-made synthetic diamonds.
They can also detect if diamonds have been treated or enhanced.
2. Advanced Technology vs Traditional Methods
Unlike traditional diamond testers that use heat and electrical conductivity, these advanced machines utilize ultraviolet short waves.
This allows them to more accurately identify synthetic diamonds that might otherwise fool standard testers.
3. Versatility in Testing
The machines are designed to test both mounted and loose diamonds.
They can cover a color range from D to J.
They offer rapid screening, providing results within seconds, which helps ensure the authenticity of the diamonds being tested.
4. Reliability and Accuracy
However, it's important to note that not all testers are equally reliable.
Some may provide inaccurate results when testing certain types of stones.
Therefore, it is recommended to verify the tester's accuracy against a known diamond before testing an unknown gemstone.
5. Identifying Fake Diamonds
Additionally, these advanced testers can accurately identify fake diamonds or cubic zirconia.
These materials do not exhibit the high thermal conductivity of genuine diamonds.
The features of these testers include the ability to test very small stones (as small as 0.002mm), built-in high-resolution cameras for detailed viewing, and low current consumption.
They offer multiple modes for testing, including manual and auto-detection modes, and can generate automated test results and certifications.
