How Diamonds Are Grown in the Laboratory

Natural or man-made—which sparkles brighter? In this fascinating episode, we explore how scientists are growing real diamonds in laboratories using cutting-edge technologies like High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). You’ll learn how lab-grown diamonds are chemically identical to natural ones, how they’re revolutionizing industries from jewelry to electronics, and why they’re shaking up the billion-dollar diamond market. We also dive into the ethical and environmental advantages of synthetic diamonds—and the controversies still surrounding them.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/kurzgesagt-podcast-science-revealed--6600013/support.
