2023Inamori Research GrantsScience & Engineering
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Inamori Foundation for selecting me for the Inamori Foundation Research Grant.
In this study, two pairs of very high quality brilliant-cut diamonds of about 0.2 carat are used to apply pressure. The material is pressurized between the culet of the diamonds, which is a very small area to generate ultrahigh pressure, so the sample size is about 5 microns, making this an artisanal experiment. Also, diamonds are consumable because they break under ultrahigh pressure. I believe that the support of this research grant will allow me to further advance my research.
