A diamond is just carbon in its most concentrated form. That's it -- carbon, the element that makes up 18 percent of the weight of your body. In many countries, including the United States and Japan, there is no other gemstone as cherished as the diamond, but in truth, diamonds are no rarer than many other precious gems. They continue to demand higher market prices because the majority of the diamond market is controlled by a single entity. Video Gallery: Expensive Taste Bruster's diamond-encrusted ice cream cone is a special treat, weighing in at 152.16 carats and retailing for $1 million. The cone was designed by Lazare Kaplan in the likeness of Bruster's cherry vanilla ice cream waffle cone. In this video from MultiVu, see how the creation was designed around diamonds of different shapes and sizes, including a rare 5....
Structural and electronic properties of carbon in hybrid diamond ...
Pseudopotential density-functional calculations of some possible high-pressure phases of carbon. The total energies of several hybrid diamond-graphite structures were calculated as a function of volume using density-functional theory and the local density approximation. The lowest calculated transition pressures between hexagonal-graphite and hybrid structures were 17 and for the transition at low temperatures between graphite and a still unidentified hard transparent phase. The electronic densities of states for the different structures are presented. Also, the x-ray powder diffraction patterns for a few structures were simulated and qualitatively compared to published experimental diffraction patterns.
