Virtually impossible to differentiate from natural diamonds with the unaided eye, they typically require advanced testing in gemmological laboratories to determine their identity. In response to the needs of the trade, GIA created the GIA iD100 – a sophisticated, easy-to-operate desktop instrument that can distinguish natural diamonds from laboratory-grown diamonds and diamond simulants in under two seconds with unrivaled accuracy. With this instrument, wholesalers and retailers can test large amounts of diamonds from the convenience of their own stores. Highly adaptable, the GIA iD100 is able to test and screen a variety of colours of diamonds, including colourless to near-colourless, blue-to-green and brown diamonds. It can also detect treatments on pink diamonds if the GIA iD100® Pink Diamond Software Upgrade is added. The instrument is straightforward to use. Simply point its probe at a stone – whether loose or mounted – to receive a result; the probe can be manipulated to reach every diamond in mounted jewellery and can read stones as small as 0.9mm in diameter. Results are easy to read, with the device reading “Pass” for natural diamonds and “Refer” for stones that need further testing. The technology of the GIA iD100 sets this device apart from other diamond testing devices. Rather than using inexpensive and inferior methods that can lead to false readings, the GIA iD100 uses fluorescence spectroscopy, one of the most accurate and advanced technologies available to determine if a stone is natural. The GIA iD100 represents over 60 years of GIA’s diamond research and can help retailers be confident about the identity of their diamond inventory. ■ 實 驗室培育鑽石在業內越發普及，單憑肉眼幾乎無法區分天然鑽石與實 驗室培育鑽石，往往需要在寶石實驗室進行進階檢測才能辨其一二。 為滿足行業需求， GIA 美國寶石研究院（簡稱 GIA ）創造出GIA iD100這部精密、 易操作的桌上裝置，可在兩秒內準確無誤地分辨天然鑽石、實驗室培育鑽 石和仿鑽。利用該儀器，批發商和零售商可以隨時在自家店鋪測試大量 鑽石。 GIA iD100 具備高靈活性，能夠測試和篩選各種顏色的鑽石，包括無色至 近無色、藍至綠色，以及棕色鑽石。配合安裝 GIA iD100 ® 粉紅色鑽石軟件升 級，它還可以檢測粉鑽上曾進行的加工處理。 該儀器簡單易用。只要將探頭對準鑽石 —— 不論是裸鑽還是鑲嵌鑽石 —— 即可獲得結果；探頭可為鑲嵌在首飾上的每顆鑽石進行測試，而可檢測的最 小尺寸為直徑 0.9 毫米。其檢測結果簡單明瞭，天然鑽石的讀數為“ Pass ”， 而需要作進一步測試的則為“ Refer ”。 GIA iD100 的技術令其在眾多鑽石檢測設備中脫穎而出。這個設計並非使用容 易導致讀數出錯的廉價粗糙檢測方法，而是採用最準確、最先進技術之一的 熒光光譜法確定鑽石是否天然。 GIA iD100 代表着 GIA 60 多年的鑽石研究成果，有助零售商對其庫存的鑽石 認證更添自信。 ■
