Scientists have long suspected that an area of the Earth's mantle, somewhere between the crust and the core, contains a vast reservoir of rock, comparatively undisturbed since the planet's formation

Recent study has big implications for quantum information technology

Traces of salt trapped in many diamonds show the stones are formed from ancient seabeds that became buried deep beneath the Earth's crust

Experiments with 'molecular anvils' mark an important advance for mechanochemistry, which has the potential to make chemistry greener and more precise

These synthetic diamonds, used in micro-anvils, have produced nearly twice the pressure found at the center of the Earth

LEGO-style building method has potential for making one-dimensional materials with extraordinary properties

Analysis of diamonds provides a look inside Earth's mantle

Berkeley Lab/UC Berkeley researchers increase NMR/MRI sensitivity through hyperpolarization of nuclei in diamond

“The only place it may be found in the natural world would be possibly in the core of some planets,” lead author says.

Scientists develop new theory about simpler deep-Earth formation
