Abstract
A method of manufacturing a diamond by a vapor phase synthesis method includes: preparing a substrate including a diamond seed crystal; forming a light absorbing layer lower in optical transparency than the substrate by performing ion implantation into the substrate, the light absorbing layer being formed at a predetermined depth from a main surface of the substrate; growing a diamond layer on the main surface of the substrate by the vapor phase synthesis method; and separating the diamond layer from the substrate by applying light from a main surface of at least one of the diamond layer and the substrate to allow the light absorbing layer to absorb the light and cause the light absorbing layer to be broken up.
