Diamond Epitaxy on Cubic Boron Nitride Using Combusion Flame Technique.

Ultrahard stitching of nanotwinned diamond and cubic boron nitride in C2-BN composite

Materials combining the hardness and strength of diamond with the higher thermal stability of cubic boron nitride (cBN) have broad potential value in science and engineering. Reacting nanodiamond with cBN at moderate pressures and high temperatures provides a pathway to such materials. Here we report the fabrication of Cx-BN nanocomposites, measuring up to 10 mm in longest dimension, by reactin...

Misfit accommodation mechanism at the heterointerface between diamond and cubic boron nitride

Diamond and cubic boron nitride (c-BN) are the top two hardest materials on the Earth. Clarifying how the two seemingly incompressible materials can actually join represents one of the most challenging issues in materials science. Here we apply the temperature gradient method to grow the c-BN single crystals on diamond and report a successful epitaxial growth. By transmission electron microscop...
