Diamond is the hardest mineral on Earth. This fact would likely pass muster at your local trivia night, but scientists ...

(IDEX Online) - Scientists in China say they have created an artificial form of a mineral called Lonsdaleite, and that is significantly harder than natural diamond. Lonsdaleite is an allotrope of ...

A joint team from Jilin University and Sun Yat-sen University announced the discovery on Feb 10, saying they successfully synthesized millimetersized lonsdaleite from graphite under extreme heat and ...

In diamond, each carbon atom is bonded to four other carbon atoms in a tetrahedral arrangement, but under the right circumstances, the carbon can be arranged hexagonally, forming a harder material ...

Chinese scientists have successfully developed a high-quality “super diamond” in the laboratory, exhibiting a hardness far greater than natural diamonds. This breakthrough holds significant ...

But under the right circumstances, carbon can arrange itself hexagonally, forming a hardier material known as lonsdaleite. We know about the existence of lonsdaleite thanks to a meteorite impact ...

This diamond is rare and is hexagonal in shape. This form, called lonsdaleite, is usually found in meteorite impact sites and earlier scientists have struggled to create pure samples in labs.
