Disclosed is a closable container of a mesh material having openings. When the container is closed, the openings are the only gaps in the container. The openings are no more than 150 microns in diameter.

Powder sieving capsule

Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for forming pellets in a non-ambient environment such as a strong magnetic field. The apparatus includes a die body, a die bottom, a short push pin, a long push pin, a press tube, and an extended push pin. A powder is loaded into the die body, which is then positioned in the non-ambient environment, and the powder allowed to equilibrate. A pellet is then formed by pressing on the extended push pin while the powder is in the non-ambient environment.

Pressing oriented pellets in a magnetic field

A structure having: a substrate and a diamond layer on the substrate having diamond nanoparticles. The diamond nanoparticles are formed by colliding diamond particles with the substrate. A method of: directing an aerosol of submicron diamond particles toward a substrate, and forming on the substrate a diamond layer of diamond nanoparticles formed by the diamond particles colliding with the substrate.
