Superhard Materials – Welcome to the kaner lab!

Designing Superhard Materials. Ten years ago, we (along with Professor Sarah Tolbert and her research group) suggested that new superhard materials could be compositionally designed by incorporating covalent bonding into high valence electron density metals. The covalent bonds prevent shear and the electron density adds incompressibility.
