Detection of melting by in-situ observation of spherical-drop formation in laser-heated diamond-anvil cells
Thomas Pippinger, Leonid Dubrovinsky, Konstantin Glazyrin +2
A simple method for detection of melting event in laser-heated diamond anvil cells (DACs) is introduced. The melting is registered optically by the formation of spherical drops of…
High-pressure form of elemental boron is covalent
N. Dubrovinskaia, L. Dubrovinsky, E. Yu. Zarechnaya +6
Oganov et al report a discovery of an ionic high-pressure /hitherto unknown phase of boron/. We show that this phase has been known since 1965, and it is a covalent material.
Cotunnite-structured titanium dioxide: the hardest known oxide
L. S. Dubrovinsky, N. A. Dubrovinskaia, V. Swamy +4
Despite great technological importance and many investigations, a material with measured hardness comparable to that of diamond or cubic boron nitride has yet to be identified. Com…
Magnetic properties of carbon phases synthesized using high pressure-high temperature treatment
K. -H. Han, A. Talyzin, A. Dzwilewski +5
Two sets of samples were synthesized at 3.5 GPa near the point of C60 cage collapse at different annealing times. A clear structural transformation from mixture of C60 polymeric ph…
