It's Bond, Carbon Bond: Strengthening Glassy Graphene While Keeping it Elastic (5 of 6)

image: Compressed glassy carbon contains buckled graphene sheets (blue spheres) connected at nodes with diamond?like bonding (red spheres). This material relates to a paper that appeared in the June 09, 2017, issue of Science Advances, published by AAAS. The paper, by M. Hu at Yanshan University in Qinhuangdao, China, and colleagues was titled, "Compressed glassy carbon: An ultrastrong and elastic interpenetrating graphene network." view more
