Discovery of carbon-based strongest and hardest amorphous material
Shuangshuang Zhang, Zihe Li, Kun Luo +22
Carbon is likely the most fascinating element of the periodic table because of the diversity of its allotropes stemming from its variable (sp, sp2, and sp3) bonding motifs. Explora…
Helium Induced Nitrogen Salt at High Pressure
Jingyu Hou, Xiao-Ji Weng, Artem R. Oganov +6
The energy landscape of helium-nitrogen mixtures is explored by ab initio evolutionary searches, which predicted several stable helium-nitrogen compounds in the pressure range from…
Direct Observation of Room-Temperature Dislocation Plasticity in Diamond
Anmin Nie, Yeqiang Bu, Junquan Huang +10
It is well known that diamond does not deform plastically at room temperature and usually fails in catastrophic brittle fracture. Here we demonstrate room-temperature dislocation p…
