ANU Associate Professor Jodie Bradby said her team – including ANU PhD student Thomas Shiell and experts from RMIT, the University of Sydney and the United States – made nano-sized Lonsdaleite, which ...
New research indicates that a rare form of diamond may originate in the burbling cores of distant worlds, arriving on Earth thanks to violent cosmic collisions. According to a team of scientists in ...
Researchers have succeeded in creating a rare type of diamond, known as lonsdaleite or hexagonal diamond. This material, whose hardness could surpass that of conventional diamonds, opens new ...
A harder form of diamond that has eluded scientists for decades can now be synthesised in the laboratory, and could be used to make extremely tough cutting and drilling tools. Diamonds as we know them ...
Chinese scientists have created an artificial “super diamond” much greater in hardness than real ones, an advance that could lead to breakthroughs across several key industries that rely on the ...
In a major scientific milestone, Chinese researchers have successfully synthesised a rare form of diamond found naturally only in meteorites, the hexagonal diamond, marking a leap forward in the quest ...
