In this study, the synthesis of the core/shell structured diamond/akageneite hybrid particles was performed through one-step isothermal hydrolyzing. The hybrid particle was characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectra. The test results overall reveal that the akageneite coating, phase β-FeO(OH), was uniformly coated onto...

The interpretation of seismic data and computer modeling requires increased accuracy in relevant material properties in order to improve our knowledge of the structure and dynamics of the Earth’s deep interior. To obtain such properties, a complementary method to classic shock compression experiments and theoretical calculations is the use of laser-heated diamond cells, which are now producing ...

The carbon and water cycles in the Earth's interior are linked to key planetary processes, such as mantle melting, degassing, chemical differentiation, advection. However, role of exchange between core is not well known. Here, we show experimental results a reaction Fe3C H2O at pressures temperatures deep core-mantle boundary (CMB). produces diamond, FeO, FeHx, suggesting that can liberate from...

High-frequency and high-speed printed circuit boards (PCBs) are made of ceramic particles anisotropic fibres, which difficult to machine. In most cases, severe tool wear occurs when drilling high-frequency PCBs. To protect the substrate drills, diamond films typically fabricated on drills using hot filament chemical vapour deposition (HFCVD). This study investigates coating characteristics with...

The article focuses on the structural performance of sandwich beams with hollow truss lattice cores made from a ductile stainless steel. The trusses are arranged in an orthogonal (cross-ply) configuration, in either ±45 (diamond) or 0 /90 (square) orientations with respect to the face sheets. The responses in shear, tension and compression, as well as simply supported and fully clamped bending,...

As a step towards resolving the genesis of inclusions in diamonds, a new technique is presented. This technique combines cathodoluminescence (CL) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) using a focused ion beam– scanning electron microscope (FIB–SEM) instrument with the aim of determining, in detail, the three-dimensional diamond zonation adjacent to a diamond inclusion. EBSD reveals that m...
