Transition metals in diamond: experimental and theoretical identification of Co-N complexes

Diamonds grown using a cobalt/iron catalyst and annealed at 1800 degrees C were studied using two experimental techniques. A zero-phonon line, observed in photoluminescence at 2.367 eV, showed the splitting under uniaxial stress characteristic of an optical transition at a defect of trigonal symmetr...
