Nanocrystalline Cubic Silicon Carbide: A Route to Superhardness (Small 22/2022)
Source abstract
Abstract
Superhard Nanocrystalline Cubic Silicon Carbide In article number 2201212, Guoying Gao, Bo Xu, and co-workers successfully synthesize nanocrystalline β-SiC bulks with asymptotic Vickers hardness over the superhard threshold of 40 GPa, broadening the family of superhard materials. The frontispiece emphasizes the superhardness of nanocrystalline SiC bulk by scratching the cBN single crystal.
