In the experiment, they were able to see that nearly every carbon atom of the original plastic was incorporated into
small diamond structures up to a few nanometers wide.
In the experiment, they could see that nearly every carbon atom of the original plastic was incorporated into «nanodiamonds» — small
diamond structures up to a few nanometers wide.
«Defects are intermixed with the
normal diamond structure, just as if the wall had an occasional half - brick or longer brick or row of bricks that's slightly displaced to one side or another.»
The advantages of this layered, sandwichlike,
diamond structure are described in a recent issue of Applied Physics Letters, from AIP Publishing.
«Since
the diamond structure is very open, many things can go wrong, leading to disorder.»
Gloria Muriel (a.k.a. Glow) and Alex Banach create works that are at once beautiful and mysterious, with undertones of the spiritual and mystical... This year for KAABOO they will have an installation, made with acrylic paint on wood panels and
diamond structure, near the entrance to the Sunset Cliffs Main Stage.
