Smallest possible diamonds form ultra-thin nanothreads
University Park PA (SPX) Sep 26, 2014 - For the first time, scientists have discovered how to produce ultra-thin "diamond nanothreads" that promise extraordinary properties, including strength and stiffness greater than that of today's strongest nanotubes and polymers.
