3. Summary

The author’s collection of diamonds includes one hundred polished plates of diverse thicknesses and sizes and exhibiting a varied behaviour. This form of diamond is exceptionally well suited for critical studies of the optical properties of diamond. The importance in the study and interpretation of the infra-red absorption by diamond of a parallel investigation of other properties is indicated. Of particular importance are three of them,viz., ultra-violet transparency, birefringence and luminescence. Simple and convenient methods for studying them are described.
