Abstract

The products of thermal conversions of naphthalene, anthracene, pentacene, perylene, and coronene at 8 GPa in the temperature range up to 1300 °C have been studied by scanning electron and high-resolution transmission electron microscopies. As a result, it has been established that various nanometer-sized carbon species (spherical and coalesced two-core onion-like carbon particles, faceted polyhedral particles, graphitic ribbons, graphitic folds, and nanocrystalline diamonds) are present in the conversion products together with micron-sized crystallites of graphite and diamond.
