starter diamond

English to Chinese Tech/Engineering IT (Information Technology)
That's because many diamonds can be grown today in low-pressure chambers where carbon from a methane-hydrogen mixture is coaxed into collecting and forming single crystals around tiny starter diamonds. The process yields large, rapidly created diamonds that may one day find a use in, among other things, semiconductor devices in high-temperature environments.

agree chica nueva : seems good. Another time that 'starter' is used is in brewing and making yoghurt, when a small amount of 'starter' containing the active agent (fermentation bacteria) is introduced to the base material, to initiate the process. Like 启动/起动用物
