Abstract

Subjecting C-60 to high pressure and temperature reveals a wide range of new carbon structures ranging from polymeric to amorphous diamond-like phases. When C-60 is compressed at 3 GPa and heated to 700 degrees C it produces a form of carbon that is semimetallic and has a hardness that is approximately two-thirds that of diamond. From elastic and inelastic neutron scattering measurements and transmission electron microscopy we propose that this phase is composed of regularly warped graphite planes, much like corrugated cardboard or iron.
