Magnetometry exploiting color center defects in diamond probes and magneto-optic imaging have been found to complement each other. This supports progress towards the creation of more effective data ...

A new atomic-scale spectroscopy technique has produced 3D images of a 27-atom cluster with a spatial precision of less than 0.1 nm. Created by Tim Taminiau and colleagues at QuTech of Delft University ...

Diamond stands up to a squeeze. Surprisingly, the material’s structure persists even when compressed to 2 trillion pascals, more than five times the pressure in Earth’s core, scientists report January ...

While studying diamonds inside an ancient meteorite, scientists have found a strange, interwoven microscopic structure that has never been seen before. The structure, an interlocking form of graphite ...
