Researchers Develop "Liquid Diamonds"

A research team led by the University of Hong Kong (CityU) showed a large

uniform stretching diamond array,which they made using a nanomechanical approach. They will now be able to use deformed diamonds in functional devices in microelectronics, photonics and quantum information technologies.

“Tensile experiments showed for the first timeextremely high uniform elasticity of the diamond. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of developing electronic devices through the deformation engineering of diamond structures, ”the researchers noted.

The researchers explained that the diamond is considereda highly efficient electronic and photonic material due to ultra-high thermal conductivity, exceptional carrier mobility, high breakdown capacity and ultra-wide bandwidth. Therefore, scientists consider it one of the best materials that can be used in electronics.

Scientists have also found that the nanoscale diamondcan be flexed elastically with greater local deformation. This proves that the properties of the material can be used to develop functional diamond devices.
