Does a diamond give off light?

1 Answer
Does a diamond give off light?
No, a diamond does not give off light but rather reflects, refracts and disperses light. Part of the brilliance of a high-quality diamond is the reflection it gives off, which travels through the diamond giving it a scattered light apparence.
