At the National University of Science and Technology "MISIS" (NUST MISIS), an ultra-strong and flexible composite material made of graphene and diamond has been created. This was reported by the press service of the university.
Ultrathin two-dimensional diamond films capable of maintaining the integrity of diamond-like structures have potential in many areas, ranging from electronics and optics to biomedicine.
The material was created in the process of studying how irradiation of graphene films affects their structure during irradiation with noble gas ions. It turned out that nanodiamonds with a diameter of 5 to 20 nanometers appear in the thickness of graphene. For this, the film must have 6 or more layers of this carbon material.
At the same time, the density of the films depends on the flux density of xenon ions with which the graphene was irradiated. The discovery made it possible to control the number of nanodiamonds in the new polymer. This affected its properties of flexibility, strength and other physical parameters.
The new material can be used in areas where high-strength coatings are required (creation of microcircuits, sensors, implants).
Earlier www1.ru reported that a luminous material for construction was developed in Novosibirsk.
