The present invention provides a preparation method of amorphous GeH, and belongs to the field of preparation technologies of amorphous GeH. The preparation method provided in the present invention includes the following step: sealing crystalline GeH, a pressure calibration object, and a pressure transmitting medium in a cavity of a diamond anvil cell, and adjusting pressure in the cavity to obtain amorphous GeH. In the present invention, pressure is applied to the GeH in the sealed diamond anvil cell, to implement amorphization of the GeH at room temperature. In this way, impurities can hardly be found in the preparation method, and pure amorphous GeH can be obtained. In addition, the method provided in the present invention has simple operations and good repeatability.

Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for manufacturing a binder for spraying onto tools. A binder is manufactured for binding compacts onto a tool substrate. The binder is designed to provide a coating strength on the tool substrate. The binder includes: a metal selected from iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), and nickel (Ni); an alloy including the metal selected from Fe, Co, and Ni; or a refractory alloy selected from tungsten, tantalum (Ta), molybdenum (Mo), and niobium (Nb). An ultra-high-pressure, high-temperature operation is performed on pure wurtzite boron nitride (w-BN) powder to synthesize w-BN and cubic boron nitride (c-BN) compact. A binder-compact mixture is produced by turbulently mixing the binder with the compact in a mixer within a vacuum. The binder-compact mixture is thermally sprayed onto a tool substrate to coat the tool.

The invention relates to a method for obtaining synthetic diamonds from sucrose, and to a device for carrying out said method, the method comprising: introducing sucrose or a solution of water and sucrose into a hermetic capsule without air, which is surrounded by an external container that keeps the volume of the capsule constant during the entire process; increasing the pressure inside the capsule by breaking down the sucrose inside the capsule, either by increasing the temperature or by combining the sucrose with sulfuric acid, until the carbon resulting from said pressure conditions of the capsule is transformed into diamond; and controlling the pressure generated inside the capsule, using containing means that apply pressure externally around the container of the capsule. In addition, extra carbon is added, increasing the dimensions of the diamond.

The present disclosure relates to a system and method for synthesis of condensed, nano-carbon materials to create nanoparticles. In one embodiment the system may have a source of liquid precursor, a flow control element and a shock wave generating subsystem. The flow control element is in communication with the source of the liquid precursor and creates a jet of liquid precursor. The shock wave generating subsystem drives a shock wave through at least a substantial portion of a thickness of the jet of liquid precursor to sufficiently compress the jet of liquid precursor, and to increase a pressure and a temperature of the jet of liquid precursor, to create solid state nanoparticles.

An apparatus for the manufacture of synthetic diamonds includes a pressure vessel having a chamber therein, and a body located in the chamber. The pressure vessel and the body are formed of materials having different coefficients of expansion.

The chamber is configured to receive the body, and a carbon source, the apparatus further comprising a heating means configured to heat at least the body to a temperature at least of 1327 C. The coefficient of expansion of the body is selected such that upon heating thereof to at least 1327 C. the pressure exerted on the carbon source is at least 4.4 Gpa.

Nano polycrystalline diamond is composed of carbon, an element of different type which is an element other than carbon and is added to be dispersed in carbon at an atomic level, and an inevitable impurity. The polycrystalline diamond has a crystal grain size not greater than 500 nm. The polycrystalline diamond can be fabricated by subjecting graphite in which the element of different type which is an element other than carbon has been added to be dispersed in carbon at an atomic level to heat treatment within high-pressure press equipment.
