Scientists measured carbon at pressures reaching 2,000 GPa – Tech Explorist
A team of scientists successfully measured carbon at pressures reaching 2,000 GPa (five times the pressure in Earth’s core), nearly doubling the maximum pressure…
Carbon is one of the most ubiquitous elements. Besides being a building block for all known life, carbon material sits in carbon-rich exoplanets’ interior, hence subject to an intense investigation by scientists.
Various studies have shown that carbon’s crystal structure has a significant impact on material properties. In the elemental form, it is found in multiple allotropes, including graphite, diamond, and fullerenes, and it has long been predicted that even more structures can exist at pressures…
