Earlier this week, scientists from both institutions announced the creation of a diamond battery that leverages the decaying ...

Battery based on carbon is designed to last 50 years and could be used to power pacemakers, spacecraft and devices in extreme ...

Scientists encased nanodiamonds in tiny moving droplets of water to improve quantum sensing. The new technique lets researchers detect trace amounts of certain ions and molecules, and could someday ...

Carbon atoms are arranged in a regular pattern, meaning carbon is solid at room temperature. Diamond is transparent. It can be cut into shapes that sparkle for jewellery. It is also extremely hard ...

Chinese scientists have created an artificial “super diamond” much greater in hardness ... a cubic lattice – or arrangement of their carbon atoms – but a hexagonal crystal structure ...
