Carbon comes in many different structures, most famously graphite and diamond. Other forms were predicted to exist at extremely high pressures, but now researchers have examined carbon under the ...

The firm's new platform, being launched with India and U.S.-based Shairu & Atit Diamonds, allows diamond industry participants the option to purchase credits in carbon reduction projects. These work ...

A battery made of diamonds could power devices for thousands of years, scientists have announced. This battery would be powered by a diamond surrounding a radioactive isotope of carbon known as carbon ...

Scientists from the University of Bristol and the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) have successfully developed the world’s first carbon-14 diamond battery. This revolutionary energy source has the ...

On the rooftop of a power-generating waste incineration plant near Zurich, Switzerland, a row of large machines pulls carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Some of that CO2 then goes to a production ...

A team of scientists and engineers from two British institutions built the world’s first carbon-14 diamond battery that has the potential to deliver low amounts of power for thousands of years.

It used to take the Earth 3 billion years, 2,000-degree temperatures, a little carbon and a lot of pressure to grow a diamond. Now, a new machine can do it in five days. In Kerrville, Texas, a small ...

A new phase of carbon has been discovered, dubbed Q-carbon by its creators at North Carolina State University, and it has a number of incredible new properties. Not only does it appear to be harder ...
