Abstract
Novel superhard phases are expected to be found among various high-pressure polymorphs of light element compounds. Besides diamond-like phases, the icosahedral boron-rich solids are of particular interest because they could combine high hardness with advanced electronic and phonon transport properties, lightness, high thermal and chemical stability. Here we review some recent results on high-pressure synthesis of novel boron-rich solids.
