Detonation synthesis of carbon nano-onions via liquid carbon condensation

Detonation synthesis of carbon nano-onions via liquid carbon condensation

Detonation of high explosives can produce many nanocarbon allotropes and morphologies, but the mechanism of formation is challenging to explore. Here the authors observe, by time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering, a transient liquid phase that precedes the formation of carbon onions.
