mymistake Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Sounds like it will be incredibly useful. However they need a better name. Perhaps adamantine or mithril. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pantheory Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Sounds like this kind of diamond could have many useful applications, also ferromagnetic? It could make North Carolina University a lot of coin in time licensing out the technologies they develop if they can build proto-types towards specific applications, then interests in the technology and licensing fees probably would greatly improve. For the best financial results they also will have to hire good patent and negotiating attorneys. One application mentioned was that its characteristics: "make it very promising for developing new electronic display technologies," Narayan says." very cool indeed.
