Diamond unit cell produced by a combinatorial synthesis from a tetrahedranoidal compound and a carbon atom, and diamond mass produced therefrom, are described. Diamond mass produced is spectroscopically-free of graphitic impurities, and free of observable defects. Unité de cellule de diamant obtenue par synthèse combinatoire à partir d'un composé tetrahédranoïdal et un atome de carbone, et masse de diamant obtenue à partir de celle-ci. La masse de diamant ainsi obtenue est exempte d'impuretés de graphite du point de vue spectroscopique et est libre de défauts observables.
