Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrahard nanotwinned cubic boron nitride.

TL;DR: It is shown that hardening of cBN is continuous with decreasing twin thickness down to the smallest sizes investigated, contrasting with the expected reverse Hall–Petch effect below a critical grain size or the twin thickness of ∼10–15 nm found in metals and alloys.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanotwinned diamond with unprecedented hardness and stability

TL;DR: The direct synthesis of nt-diamond with an average twin thickness of ∼5 nm is reported, using a precursor of onion carbon nanoparticles at high pressure and high temperature, and the observation of a new monoclinic crystalline form of diamond coexisting with nt -diamond is observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-pressure creep of serpentine, interseismic deformation, and initiation of subduction.

TL;DR: Antigorite viscosity is sufficiently low to make serpentinized faults in the oceanic lithosphere a site for subduction initiation and enables viscous relaxation with characteristic times comparable to those of long-term postseismic deformations after large earthquakes and slow earthquakes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The deformation-DIA: A new apparatus for high temperature triaxial deformation to pressures up to 15 GPa

TL;DR: In this article, a deformation apparatus based on the widely used cubic-anvil apparatus known as the DIA is developed, which allows independent control of the differential strain and stress field under high confining pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laser heated diamond cell system at the Advanced Photon Source for in situ x-ray measurements at high pressure and temperature

TL;DR: In this article, a double-sided laser heating system was used for in situ x-ray measurements at simultaneously ultrahigh pressures (to >150 GPa) and ultrahigh temperatures (to ∼4000 K) at the Advanced Photon Source.
