LGDinTECH Insights

GIA (Gemological Institute of America) is stepping into the future of technology … and it’s redefining what diamond can do.

In our third episode of LGDinTECH Insights, Liz Chatelain sits down with GIA’s leading diamond scientists - Dr. Wuyi Wang, Dr. Ulrika D’Haenens-Johansson, and Dr. Daniel Jones - for an unprecedented deep dive into GIA’s new Testing & Metrology Division for Technical-Grade Diamond.

For the first time, GIA explains:
✅ Why they’re entering the diamond-for-technology space
✅ What pain points exist in today’s diamond material ecosystem
✅ How their metrology tools reveal defects, purity levels, NV centers, and optical/quantum characteristics\
✅ Why advanced industries now require precision diamond analysis
✅ How GIA is enabling aerospace, quantum, photonics, semiconductors, medical devices, and more
✅ Their state-of-the-art techniques in analyzing diamond defects, characterizing material properties, and providing invaluable insights for technological applications.

This is the most detailed public discussion ever released about GIA’s new capabilities for lab-grown diamonds used in technology - you won’t want to miss.
