ANEL
DLC · amorphous sp²–sp³ hybrid
ANEL is an original carbon nanomaterial with a hexagonal diamond-like lattice structure (sp²/sp³ hybrid). It occupies a class position that neither graphite nor diamond can: ANEL maintains electrical conductivity comparable to graphene while achieving thermal stability beyond 4000°C and absolute chemical inertness to acids, oxidizers, and virtually all reagents. The minimum conductor size approaches 1 nm — enabling post-silicon microelectronic architectures.
| Thermal stability | >3500°C (no deformation), >4000°C (conductivity retained) |
| Electrical conductivity | ≥ graphene and silver |
| Chemical resistance | Does not dissolve in acids or oxidizers |
| Min conductor size | ~1 nm |
| Lattice structure | Hexagonal sp²/sp³ diamond-like hybrid |
| vs. Graphene | Superior in thermal stability and mechanical strength |
- Electrical conductivity ≥ graphene and silver maintained above 4000°C
- Complete chemical inertness — unaffected by HNO₃, HCl, H₂SO₄, and aqua regia
- Minimum conductor dimension ~1 nm — beyond silicon node limits
- Does not oxidize under atmospheric or process conditions
- Exceeds graphene in both thermal stability and mechanical strength
ANEL's sp²/sp³ hybrid lattice enables properties previously considered mutually exclusive: high electrical conductivity AND extreme thermal stability AND chemical inertness in a single carbon material. Graphene is thermally limited; diamond is not conductive; graphite oxidizes. ANEL transcends all three constraints simultaneously.
