Path for Room-Temperature Superconductivity in Q-Carbon-Related Materials

We present the atomic structures and nonequilibrium synthesis of a new class of materials, where the basic structural unit is a diamond tetrahedron. When units of one, two, and three tetrahedra are randomly packed, we create distinct phases of amorphous Q-carbon. Four tetrahedra in two adjacent laye...
