My immediate thought was to wrap them in some sort of diamondoid shell through some sort of mechanosynthesis process, but maybe a carbon nanotube would be stronger?
- the_seraphim 7y agocouple it with some double walled carbon nanotubes and you can get upto 700 GPa https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2019/01/fabrication-of-ultrastrong-700-gigapascal-fused-double-walled-carbon-nanotubes.html https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2019/01/fabrication-of-ultrast...
- DiseasedBadger 7y agoI wonder if one could just stuff the tubes with hydrogen, then lanthanum powder, then just let them expand? They might auto-heat from the pressure, and assemble themselves, if you just unfroze them.
