Press Release: The De Beers Group of Companies today announced that its International Institute of Diamond Grading & Research (IIDGR) will reveal details of an upgraded DiamondView™ instrument at GIA GemFest in Basel on Sunday, March 22, 2015.
DiamondView™ is part of the suite of IIDGR verification technology. The instrument generates a surface fluorescence image on any stone being tested, providing information on growth history from which synthetics can be identified.
The upgraded DiamondView™ instrument incorporates easy-to-change filters to aid user interpretation of fluorescence images and the detection of synthetics. The addition of filtering to the fluorescence image can enhance synthetic-specific features, making detection easier. DiamondView™ filtering is particularly useful for identifying synthetics produced by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process.
Jonathan Kendall, IIDGR's president, said, “This upgrade to the DiamondView™ instrument represents the latest step in our continued investment in synthetic-detection technology and consumer confidence. Maintaining trust in diamonds is crucial, so we are pleased to introduce this upgrade to DiamondView™ and we will continue to invest in technology to support confidence in diamonds throughout the value chain.”
The latest version of the DiamondView™ instrument will be available to purchase via www.iidgr.com from June 2015.
