This book is the first to give an exhaustive overview of the structures, properties, current and possible future applications of diamondoids. The first part introduces the structures of diamondoids and gives an overview of their principal chemical and physical properties and a brief historical account, from the discovery of the first diamondoid member to the isolation of higher diamondiods. Then, current synthesis approaches and challenges in obtaining diamondoids in higher quantities are shown. Finally, approaches to generating plasmas in high-pressure and supercritical media are described.

Autorenporträt
Sven Stauss received an engineering diploma in materials science from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in 2000. After an internship at the R&D center of Toshiba, Japan, from 2000 to 2001, he pursued a PhD in materials science at the EPFL and the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research (Empa). After his graduation in 2005, he joined the group of Prof. Terashima in the Department of Advanced Materials Science at the University of Tokyo, Japan, where he is currently assistant professor. His current research focuses on cryoplasmas and plasmas in supercritical fluids and their application to materials processing. Kazuo Terashima received his ME and PhD in metallurgy and materials science from the University of Tokyo in 1984 and 1988, respectively. From 1993 to 1995, he was a guest professor at the University of Basel, Switzerland. He is now a professor in the Department of Advanced Materials Science, University of Tokyo. His major interest is in plasma materials science. His main research focuses on microplasmas and their application to exotic plasmas, such as supercritical fluid plasmas and cryoplasmas.
