The structure, an interlocking form of graphite and diamond, has unique properties that could one day be used to develop superfast charging or new types of electronics, researchers say.

Plus, the samples contain interlocking layers of lonsdaleite, cubic diamond and graphite in a pattern that points to the fluid-driven transformation Tomkins’s team describes.

Meteorite diamonds, which could be 58% harder than ordinary diamonds, have finally been made in the lab. Scientists have ...

Strange Hexagonal Diamonds Crashed To Earth From Ancient Dwarf Planet Four meteorites found in north-west Africa contain diamonds harder than any from Earth.

Through the simulations, the team also revealed the molecular structures of liquid carbon as it crystallized into graphite and then, separately, as liquid carbon crystallized into diamond.
