Lightning in a diamond to power the quantum revolution
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in categories: climatology, computing, quantum physics
Diamonds are forever đ A team of scientists from UniMelb, RMIT University and The City College of New York were able to observe lightning in a diamond âĄïž Diamond chips can potentially be used in electronics and are more powerful than silicon. Tap to learn more âĄïž
We also donât yet fully understand how charges flow inside diamond, and how unavoidable impurities and defects affect these electrical properties.
In a recent study with colleagues from the University of Melbourne, RMIT University and the City College of New York, we sought to combine electrical measurements of a diamond optoelectronic device with 3D optical microscopy.
