Abstract
In our work [19], we presented the law of diamond crystallogenesis applicable to the synthesis of natural and laboratory-produced diamonds. Here, we describe the law of diamond crystallogenesis in more detail. The law of diamond crystallogenesis shows that the rate of diamond growth depends on the number of electrons involved in the synthesis and the oxidation state of carbon in the precursor. Pressure and temperature play a supporting role and are triggers that initiate the electronic mechanism of diamond synthesis. A key aspect of the law of diamond crystallogenesis is electrons, which are considered the most important catalysts in the process of diamond formation, playing a fundamental role in changing the reactivity of carbon and forming the diamond structure. The discovery of the law of diamond crystallogenesis dispels the myth of millions and billions of years required for diamond formation, as well as the myth of pressure and temperature as direct factors in diamond formation. The law of diamond crystallogenesis opens the way to breakthrough technologies for the ultra-fast synthesis of artificial diamonds.
