"Compressed Graphite'' Formed During C-60 to Diamond Transformation as Revealed by Scattering Computed Tomography

Résumé

The collapsing of C-60 into polycrystalline diamond has been studied after nonhydrostatic pressurization at ambient temperature using x-ray scattering computed tomography. Using this selective structural probe we provide evidence of concentric coexistence of "compressed graphite'' (d(00l) similar to 3.09-3.11 angstrom), s p(2)-graphitelike phase (d(00l) similar to 3.35-3.42 angstrom), and s p(3)-like amorphous carbon surrounding polycrystalline diamond (a similar to 3.56-3.59 angstrom). The so-called "compressed graphite'' exhibits a collapsed c axis and is textured with disordered layers. This latter phase is better described as a short interlayered carbon phase with buckled s p(2)-s p(3) layers with possible interlayer bonding. Additionally, our 3D maps of phase distribution and of the residual stress retained in the polycrystalline diamond phase support the importance of stressed synthesis conditions for diamond formation.
