Description:
Author(s): Jian-Tao Wang, Changfeng Chen, and Yoshiyuki Kawazoe The atomistic mechanism for direct conversion of graphite to diamond is a long-standing problem in condensed matter physics. Here, we establish by ab initio calculations bond reconstruction pathways from graphite to a basic series of diamond polytypes of 2H, 3C, 4H, and 12R. The conversion proceeds ... [Phys. Rev.
