Abstract
A diamond reference standard contains a diamond composite of 60-90% diamond crystals and 10-40% silicon carbide binding agent doped with a plurality of elements. The standard is prepared by doping a diamond composite containing a silicon carbide binder with a plurality of elements, the presence of which can readily be detected using a variety of instruments, e.g. a mass spectrometer.
