Diamond surfaces are covered in thin, ice-like water layers
Using atomic-scale defects in diamond, researchers in China have gained unprecedented insights into the complex chemical processes that unfold at the interfaces between solid surfaces and their surroundings. Published in Physical Review Letters, the results reveal that water molecules can form a nanoscale, ice-like layer on diamond surfaces—with important implications for our understanding of interfacial dynamics.
