Approaching diamond’s theoretical elasticity and strength limits

Approaching diamond’s theoretical elasticity and strength limits

While diamond is the strongest natural material, it fails to reach its theoretical elasticity limits and is brittle. Here, the authors show that thin <100>-orientated diamond nanoneedles can reach diamond’s theoretical strength and elasticity limits in tension.
