This project aims to synthesise useful materials from non-crystalline light element precursors. Boron, carbon and nitrogen are the hardest known solids, and their ability to form many kinds of chemical bonds offers opportunities for attractive new materials. This project will apply high pressures and temperatures to non-crystalline precursor materials to access previously unobtainable synthesis conditions. This project will create strong and hard materials with tuneable optical and electronic properties. The expected outcome is new light materials that emit and detect light in the far ultraviolet for biological imaging and tough materials with low friction needed for motors and regenerative technologies.

该项目旨在从非晶态轻元素前体中合成有用的材料。硼、碳和氮是已知最难的固体，它们能够形成多种化学键，为开发有吸引力的新材料提供了机会。该项目将对非晶态前体材料施加高压和高温，以获得以前无法获得的合成条件。该项目将创造出具有可调光学和电学特性的坚硬材料。预期的结果是新的光材料，可以发射和探测远紫外线中的光，用于生物成像，以及发动机和再生技术所需的低摩擦的坚韧材料。
