Macquarie University researchers have made a single tiny diamond shine brightly at room temperature, a behaviour known as superradiance. This is important because nanodiamonds have the potential to be used in all sorts of devices...
Chinese researchers have found that nano-diamond has significant impact on the performance of magnetorheological fluids (MRFs). The shear yield strength and settling stability of the MRFs were found to have potential to be highly enhanced through...
Key to the process are synthetic diamonds. When the electrons in synthetic diamonds are excited during a chemical reaction, high levels of energy transform CO2 into fine chemicals...
The diamond industry is feeling the pinch as synthetic diamonds gain more currency, said Peter Meeus, chairman, Dubai Diamond Exchange. "Traders are already feeling the fallout. People are nervous, trust levels are low and companies are being...
