摘要: We compare electrical and mechanical properties of ${\mathrm{C}}_{70}$ fullerene with high purity graphite to $48\mathrm{GPa}$ at room temperature using designer diamond anvils embedded microprobes. The resistance shows a minimum $20\mathrm{GPa}$ transformation an amorphous insulating phase complete above $35\mathrm{GPa}$, while remains conducting. Nanoindentation hardness values 220 times larger for the pressure quenched than similarly treated graphite. Our studies establish that carbon produced from has unique not attainable
